  • Phytophthora Ramorum Sudden Oak Death Pathogen
    NAME OF SPECIES: Phytophthora ramorum Sudden Oak Death pathogen Synonyms: Common Name: Sudden Oak Death pathogen A. CURRENT STATUS AND DISTRIBUTION I. In Wisconsin? 1. YES NO X 2. Abundance: 3. Geographic Range: 4. Habitat Invaded: 5. Historical Status and Rate of Spread in Wisconsin: 6. Proportion of potential range occupied: II. Invasive in Similar Climate YES NO X Zones United States: In 14 coastal California Counties and in Curry County, Oregon. In nursery in Washington. Canada: Nursery in British Columbia. Europe: Germany, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Poland, Spain, France, Belgium, and Sweden. III. Invasive in Similar Habitat YES X NO Types IV. Habitat Affected 1. Habitat affected: this disease thrives in cool, wet climates including areas in coastal California within the fog belt or in low- lying forested areas along stream beds and other bodies of water. Oaks associated with understory species that are susceptible to foliar infections are at higher risk of becoming infected. 2. Host plants: Forty-five hosts are regulated for this disease. These hosts have been found naturally infected by P. ramorum and have had Koch’s postulates completed, reviewed and accepted. Approximately fifty-nine species are associated with Phytophthora ramorum. These species are found naturally infected; P. ramorum has been cultured or detected with PCR but Koch’s postulates have not been completed or documented and reviewed. Northern red oak (Quercus rubra) is considered an associated host. See end of document for complete list of plant hosts. National Risk Model and Map shows susceptible forest types in the mid-Atlantic region of the United States.

  • Diagnosis of Phytophthora Ramorum in Trees
    Diagnosis of PhytophthoraPhytophthora ramorumramorum in Trees by Dr. Kim D. Coder, Warnell School of Forest Resources, University of Georgia April, 2004 The organism shown to be responsible for SOD (sudden oak death) is Phytophthora ramorum, a fungus / yeast-like brown algae. This pathogen generates a number of symptoms in the trees infected. Of the trees and large shrubs shown to be infectable with this pathogen, some species have more serious stem and branch lesions like oaks, while other species have primarily leaf and twig lesions. In a single landscape, multiple hosts can keep the pathogen present for further attacks. This publication was prepared by reviewing approximately 35 research or disease announcement publications in Europe and North America. In addition, a number of factsheets and synthesized informa- tion guides were reviewed for continuity. This publication is designed for field diagnosis of SOD-like symptoms and related symptom sets on community trees. This publication should not be used in tree nursery situations, and is not a pathogen centered review. It is critical to seek pathological expertise and testing for confirming disease organism presence. A selected bibliography is available entitled “Sudden Oak Death – SOD: Bibliography of Important Literature.” (Coder, Kim D. 2004. University of Georgia, Warnell School of Forest Resources outreach publication SFR04-1. 2pp.). Names The tree syndrome or symptom set which characterizes attack by Phytophthora ramorum has common names of “ramorum dieback,” “ramorum blight,” “ramorum twig blight,”“ramorum leaf blight,” “ramorum stem canker,” “blood spot disease,” or “sudden oak death” (SOD). Phytophthora ramorum, and the less virulent Phytophthora nemorosa and Phytophthora pseudosyringae are all relatively new pathogen species recovered from trees which show ramorum blight symptoms.

(2015). Homogenous genetic structure in populations of Taxus baccata with varied proportions of male and female individuals. Silva Fennica vol. 49 no. 4 article id 1236. 14 p. Highlights • Polish populations of Taxus baccata showed a high level of genetic diversity within popula- tions and moderate genetic differentiation between them after nSSR marker testing. • No significant differences in the genetic variation between T. baccata male and female indi- viduals were observed, and microsatellite loci neutrality was verified. • Determining the sex ratio in T. baccata populations is not essential to develop a clear under- standing of genetic differentiation and diversity within and between populations of this species. Abstract English yew (Taxus baccata L.) is a strictly outcrossing and dioecious species whose popula- tions are small and isolated. It is known that sex ratios may vary in natural populations due to local environmental conditions or stochastic events. However, unbalanced sex ratios may have negative impacts on genetic diversity through enhanced genetic drift and inbreeding. The present study represents one of the first attempts to compare the genetic variation at microsatellite loci within and between populations with different gender proportions.
