The Pennsylvania State University The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School Department of Plant Pathology and Environmental Microbiology VERTICILLIUM NONALFALFAE: A POTENTIAL BIOLOGICAL CONTROL OF THE INVASIVE AILANTHUS ALTISSIMA IN PENNSYLVANIA A Dissertation in Plant Pathology by Matthew Kasson 2012 Matthew Kasson Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2012 The dissertation of Matt Kasson was reviewed and approved* by the following: Donald D. Davis Professor of Plant Pathology Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee David Geiser Professor of Plant Pathology Fredrick Gildow Professor of Plant Pathology Daniel Royse Professor of Plant Pathology Michael Saunders Professor of Entomology *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT In this dissertation I had three main objectives. The first was to utilize tree ring analysis, historic records to better understand the history, distribution, spatiotemporal spread, and growth patterns of the invasive Ailanthus altissima (tree-of-heaven) as a means of explaining why naturally occurring Verticillium wilt epidemics have only recently developed in PA despite a long history of colonization by Ailanthus. Furthermore these investigations sought to provide answers to fundamental questions regarding the biology of Ailanthus such as maximum age at which seed production occurs and maximum lifespan, both of which ultimately affect the management of the species. Second, I carried out a series of multi-year experiments to better understand two separate aspects of Verticillium wilt of Ailanthus: efficacy of Verticillium nonalfalfae as a biocontrol agent against the target host, and intra-specific resistance that may be present within established populations in the U.S. that ultimately would affect large scale use of this potential bioncotrol. Host range studies sought to clarify and expand preliminary host-range testing, and also test whether V. nonalfalfae isolate VnAa140 was host-adapted. Finally, I sought to investigate the role of the unbiquitous exotic ambrosia beetle, Euwallacea validus, which attacks declining Ailanthus trees throughout the study area. The latter studies sought to assess what role, if any, the mycangial fungi of these beetles had on tree health and disease progression, as well as clarifying phylogentic relationships of their mycangial fungi. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS List of Figures……………………………………………………………………………….vii List of Tables…………………………………………………………………………………ix List of Appendices……………………………………………………………………………x Chapter 1 The

  • Lecture 03 2- Leaf Folding (Rolling) Insects: Leaf Folders Are
    Plant Protection Dept. 3rd Stage Students Practical Forest Insects Mr. Hazim S. Ahmed and Mrs. Dlpak B. Yaba Lecture 03 2- Leaf folding (rolling) insects: Leaf folders are characterized by the ability of spinning large amounts of threads to bind the leaves or other plant parts. (1) Spruce budworm, Choristoneura fumiferana Order: Lepidoptera Family: Totricidae Description: Adults have a wingspan of about 20mm, are gray with dark brown markings or red-brown with gray markings. Eggs are light green, 1mm long and 0.2mm wide and laid in elongate masses of 2 to 60 eggs that overlap. Larvae: 1st Instar larvae are about 2mm long with a yellow-green body and brown head. 2nd Instar larvae are yellow with a dark brown or black head. During the next four instars, larval body color changes from pale yellow to dark brown with light-colored spots along the back. 5th Instar larvae average 25mm long with a dark brown-black head. Pupae are pale green at first and later change to red brown, marked with dark bands and spots. Damage: Larvae feed on expanding buds, flowers and on new foliage. Spruce budworm is considered as the most destructive forest defoliator in Canada and the USA. Outbreaks often cover millions of hectares and persist for 8 to 10 years. Outbreaks are associated with maturing of balsam fir and increased staminate flower production, which are a favorite food of young larvae. Successive years of bud damage and defoliation cause growth loss, top kill and tree mortality. 12 Plant Protection Dept. 3rd Stage Students Practical Forest Insects Mr.

  • Forest Insect Conditions in the United States 1966
    FOREST INSECT CONDITIONS IN THE UNITED STATES 1966 FOREST SERVICE ' U.S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Foreword This report is the 18th annual account of the scope, severity, and trend of the more important forest insect infestations in the United States, and of the programs undertaken to check resulting damage and loss. It is compiled primarily for managers of public and private forest lands, but has become useful to students and others interested in outbreak trends and in the location and extent of pest populations. The report also makes possible n greater awareness of the insect prob­ lem and of losses to the timber resource. The opening section highlights the more important conditions Nationwide, and each section that pertains to a forest region is prefaced by its own brief summary. Under the Federal Forest Pest Control Act, a sharing by Federal and State Governments the costs of surveys and control is resulting in a stronger program of forest insect and disease detection and evaluation surveys on non-Federal lands. As more States avail themselves of this financial assistance from the Federal Government, damage and loss from forest insects will become less. The screening and testing of nonpersistent pesticides for use in suppressing forest defoliators continued in 1966. The carbamate insecticide Zectran in a pilot study of its effectiveness against the spruce budworm in Montana and Idaho appeared both successful and safe. More extensive 'tests are planned for 1967. Since only the smallest of the spray droplets reach the target, plans call for reducing the spray to a fine mist. The course of the fine spray, resulting from diffusion and atmospheric currents, will be tracked by lidar, a radar-laser combination.

Maple, smoke-tree, elm, redbud, viburnum, and lilac are among the more important hosts of this disease. Japanese maples appear to be particularly susceptible and often collapse shortly after the disease is detected. Plants weakened by root damage from drought, waterlogged soils, de-icing salts, and other environmental stresses are thought to be more prone to infection. Figure 1. Japanese maple with acute symptoms of Verticillium wilt. Verticillium wilt is caused by two closely related soilborne fungi, Verticillium dahliae They also develop a variety of symptoms and V. albo-atrum. Isolates of these fungi that include wilting, curling, browning, and vary in host range, pathogenicity, and drying of leaves. These leaves usually do virulence. Verticillium species are found not drop from the plant. In other cases, worldwide in cultivated soils. The most leaves develop a scorched appearance, show common species associated with early fall coloration, and drop prematurely Verticillium wilt of woody ornamentals in (Figure 2). Connecticut is V. dahliae. Plants with acute infections start with SYMPTOMS AND DISEASE symptoms on individual branches or in one DEVELOPMENT: portion of the canopy.

  • Classic Lacebark Elm
    Athena ‘Emer I’ Classic Lacebark Elm Lineage Ulmus parvifolia (Chinese elm, Lacebark elm, Drake elm). Also known as ‘Emerald Isle’. PP7551 Introduced in 1989 (Dave’s Garden, 2011). Tree Form A medium-sized tree with a broad rounded canopy, often with a trunk that forks resulting in a vase shape similar to that of the American elm (Floridata, updated 11/18/2010). Tree size, leaf size and growth rate half of that of the American elm, and they are often planted as a single tree (Warren, 2000). Height: 30 to 40 feet Width: 35 to 45, up to 60 foot wide crown spread (Delmar Learning, undated; UConn, undated)) Foliage Dark green in summer, leathery, almost black; bronze to bronze-brown in fall (Cornell, undated). Leaves simple, 1 to 2 inches long, but half as wide. Ovate, margins rounded to serrate (Delmar Learning, undated). Late deciduous, almost evergreen in mild climates (Floridata, 2010). Culture NA Disease and Insect Information Literature (Dutch elm disease studies, insect resistance assessments, etc.): Resistant to Dutch Elm Disease (DED), phloem necrosis and Elm Leaf Beetles (Delmar Learning, undated). It resists DED and shows very good performance under dry conditions (UConn, undated). Completely immune to Gypsy Moth, and only 10% of the leaf tissue was consumed by Japanese Beetle, the lowest of all the asian elms tested in a no-choice study (Paluch et al., 2006). When the Japanese Beetles were given a choice of species they did not feed on the U. parvifolia at all (Paluch et al., 2006). In an earlier similar study, U. parvifolia was the most resistant of all cultivars and hybrids to the Japanese Beetle (Miller et al., 1999).

OVERVIEW Oak management is particularly challenging because Oak associations are found in every county in oak regeneration is poor in many parts of Michigan Michigan, but the largest areas are in northern Lower (and throughout eastern North America), with Michigan, where they comprise a range of managed implications for ecosystem structure and function forest ecosystems dominated by four oak species: (Barnes et al. 1998). It is important to recognize, northern pin oak (Quercus ellipsoidalis); black oak however, that oak associations now present are an (Quercus velutina); white oak (Quercus alba); and red anomaly (Pedersen 2006); compared to historic oak oak (Quercus rubra). These oak species were a ecosystems, current oak forests are much different in component of several natural community types in terms of their species composition and structure. For northern Lower Michigan forests in the early 1800s, greater regional- or landscape-level biodiversity, including dry northern forest, dry-mesic northern managers could allow or encourage succession of these forest, mesic northern forest, oak-pine barrens, and oak ecosystems to their derivational natural jack pine barrens (MNFI 2003). However, oaks were community types by allowing oaks to serve as nurse not a dominant species in northern Michigan forests, trees for later-successional species, replanting formerly as they were in southern oak-hickory and dry mixed- dominant tree species, such as pines, where natural oak forests.
