Hymenoscyphus fraxineus is an ascomycete fungus that causes ash dieback, a chronic fungal disease of ash trees in Europe characterised by leaf loss and crown dieback in infected trees. The fungus was first scientifically described in 2006 under the name Chalara fraxinea .
Forest dieback (also "Waldsterben", a German loan word, pronounced [ˈvaltˌʃtɛʁbn̩] ⓘ) is a condition in trees or woody plants in which peripheral parts are killed, either by pathogens, parasites or conditions like acid rain, drought, [1] and more.
Dieback may refer to a number of plant problems and diseases including: Forest dieback caused by acid rain, heavy metal pollution, or imported pathogens; The death of regions of a plant or similar organism caused by physical damage, such as from pruning; Those caused by the genus Eutypa, such as Eutypa dieback
Exobasidium vaccinii, commonly known as “red leaf disease,” or “Azalea Gall,” is a biotrophic species of fungus that causes galls on ericaceous plant species, such as blueberry and azalea (Vaccinium and Rhododendron spp.). Exobasidium vaccinii is considered the type species of the Exobasidium genus. [1]
Twig dieback also starts apically and works towards the center of the plant. It is characterized by a slow necrosis of the branch, leaving large, dead limbs on the upper portions of trees. [2] Under the microscope, it can be identified by its immersed, pyriform perithecia (pear-shaped, spore-containing structures), which have a brown exterior wall.
Dieback is characterized as a ‘dead arm’ and a loss of spur positions. More symptoms include stunted shoots in the spring, delay or lack of growth in the spur positions of the bud burst, bleached canes and necrotic buds. Bud necrosis, bud failure, and the dieback of arms are all a result of the necrosis of the host's vascular system. [9]
Scleroderris canker (American name), or Brunchorstia disease (European name), [1] Gremmeniella abietina, is a species of fungal diseases infecting coniferous forests. The main symptom is the death of the needles, leading to the death of the tree. [2]
