Cryptosphaeria Canker And Libertella Decay Of Aspen, Thomas E. Hinds
Cryptosphaeria Canker And Libertella Decay Of Aspen, Thomas E. Hinds
Aspen Bibliography
A recently discovered, widely distributed canker disease of aspen and other poplars throughout the Rocky Mountain region is described. Inoculations with ascospore and conidial isolates of Cryptosphaeria populina show the fungus is capable of causing branch, sprout, and sapling mortality, trunk cankers, and the discoloration and decay of aspen stems previously associated with its imperfect stage, Libertella sp. The greatest average canker elongation 50 mo after September inoculations was 33.5 cm with sapwood decay and discoloration extending to 401 cm. The fungus caused an average weight loss of 13.5% in bark, 27.0% in sapwood, and 19.1% in heartwood blocks. Incidence …

Hypoxylon Canker Incidence On Pruned And Unpruned Aspen, Michael E. Ostry, G.W. Anderson
Aspen Bibliography
This sturdy was designed to measure the relation between the incidence of Hypoxylon canker, Hypoxylon mammatum Wahl. Mill., and the presence of branches on an aspen stem.
Phytoalexin Production By Aspen (Populus Tremuloides Michx.) In Response To Infection By Hypoxylon Mammatum (Wahl.) Mill. And Alternaria Spp, G. Flores, M. Hubbes
Phytoalexin Production By Aspen (Populus Tremuloides Michx.) In Response To Infection By Hypoxylon Mammatum (Wahl.) Mill. And Alternaria Spp, G. Flores, M. Hubbes
Aspen Bibliography
Freshly wounded stem sections of P. tremuloides Michx. produce phytoalexin when inoculated with mycelium of Hypoxylon mammatum (Wahl.) Mill., and Alternaria sp. These exudates are inhibitory against spore germination of these two fungi and, although inhibitory against mycelial growth of Alternaria sp., have no effect on the mycelial growth of H. mammatum. It was possible to correlate the amount of phytoalexin elicited by different strains with the inhibitory activity.
