Journal ArticleDOI
Infection and disease development of Quambalaria spp. on Corymbia and Eucalyptus species
TL;DR: The presence of an interaction zone is demonstrated in this paper and it is shown that Q. pitereka and Q. eucalypti hyphae grew only intercellularly without the formation of haustoria or interaction apparatus, which is characteristic of the order Microstromatales.
Journal Article
Ophiostoma species, including Ophiostoma borealis sp. nov., infecting wounds of native broad-leaved trees in Norway
Gilbert Kamgan Nkuekam,Halvor Solheim,Z. Wilhelm de Beer,Joha W. Grobbelaar,Karin Jacobs,Michael J. Wingfield,Jolanda Roux +6 more
TL;DR: This paper aims to demonstrate the efforts towards in-situ applicability of EMMARM, as to provide real-time information about bark beetle infestation and their effects on tree health and biodiversity.
Journal ArticleDOI
23 years of research on Teratosphaeria leaf blight of Eucalyptus
Vera Andjic,Angus J. Carnegie,Geoff S. Pegg,G.E.St.J. Hardy,Aaron Maxwell,Pedro W. Crous,Catherine J. Perez,Michael J. Wingfield,Michael J. Wingfield,Treena I. Burgess,Treena I. Burgess +10 more
TL;DR: It is clear that more effective forest management and more stringent biosecurity measurements will be a required to sustain eucalypt plantations globally.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of water stress on the development of cambial lesions caused by Cryphonectria cubensis on Eucalyptus grandis
TL;DR: Whether a relationship exists between the development of Cryphonectria canker and water stress and whether drought stress is associated with increased growth of the pathogen is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biotic and abiotic constraints that facilitate host exclusivity of Gondwanamyces and Ophiostoma on Protea
TL;DR: Results showed that various biotic and abiotic factors influence the growth and survival of these fungi in vitro and a combination of host chemistry and temperature partially explains host exclusivity, but the relationship for these factors on the tested saprobic microfungi and their hosts is clearly complex.
