“Does Emerald Ash Borer Infestation Alter Ash Phloem Microbial Communities over Time?” Read the article by Andrew J. Mann et al. to find out: https://doi.org/10.1094/PBIOMES-06-25-0046-R #plantmicrobiome #microbiome #endophytes #emeraldashborer
Fig. 1. A sampling overview diagram. Trees are organized into infestation categories based on the following criteria. A: Emerald ash borer (EAB)-infested phloem in the bottom 2 m of the tree during the entire study period. B: EAB-infested phloem is absent in the bottom 2 m of the tree at the start of the study but present at the end of the study. C: Trees show symptoms of EAB infestation in canopy but no EAB-infested phloem in the bottom 2 m of the tree. D: No symptoms of EAB infestation. The orange in the figure provides a simplified representation of the locations of EAB galleries within the tree in each infestation category. The control phloem samples are labeled as CP, uninfested phloem before EAB reached the base of the tree is labeled as UP Before, uninfested phloem after EAB reached the base of the tree is labeled as UP After, infested phloem is labeled as IP, frass is labeled as F, and the larval samples are labeled as La.

The City of #GreaterSudbury is removing 1,500 #AshTrees from municipal properties, as most have or will succumb to the #EmeraldAshBorer beetle. The insect has wreaked havoc across North America, destroying all kinds of #trees. CGS will replace lost trees.

The Emerald Ash Borer has been officially detected in Bowdoinham.

🌳 www.maine.gov/eab

If you have ash trees, now is the time to make a plan.

A local group is organizing to help. Email bhameab1@gmail.com to get involved.

As I was on my walk yesterday, this snappy-dressing little guy was on his. While I've accomplished little in the last twenty years, he's killed many millions of ash trees. Impressive. Yes, and just something else you can do nothing about.

Emerald Ash Borer Killing Ash Trees in North Alabama
[Forestry Commission, Alabama] After investigating reports of dying ash trees in Jackson and Madison counties in north Alabama, the AFC has identified the non-native Emerald Ash Borer as the culprit, the first confirmed observation of the pest in those counties.

This is a great rule! I have been so fortunate to have this, though the tree canopy is going through a big transition in my neighbourhood due to #DutchElmDisease #EmeraldAshBorer #TwoLineOakBeetle It will get worse before it gets better. #Minneapolis

The “3-30-300 Rule” — everyone should be able to see three trees from their home, have 30% tree canopy in their neighborhood, and live within 300 metres of a high-quality green space.

Emerald Ash Borer (Agrilus planipennis) damage. 🪲 Larvae eat tree tissue under bark creating swirly paths and borer holes. Sadly, many of our Ash have died but their snags benefit wildlife. Nature is healing & we’re seeing an increased of hickory, oaks, and cedars. #emeraldashborer

Don't miss the next Cultivating Healthy Plants webinar 12/11 at 11 AM PST, which will give an update on emerald ash borer in the West and highlight the work done in the eastern U.S. to combat this highly destructive forest pest. Register here: buff.ly/Jpl60A8 #EmeraldAshBorer
A flyer with a picture of emerald ash borer tunnels in wood and of the speaker, Dr. Clifford Sadof. The text says, "Emerald Ash Borer in the West. Emerald ash borer (EAB) is considered the most destructive forest pest the U.S. has ever faced, and is slowly spreading westward. This 2-hour webinar will provide an update of this pest in the west followed by the work done in the eastern U.S. to combat it. Hosted by Dr. Kadie Britt, IPM Program Manager, Colorado State University. Thursday, December 11th, 11 AM Pacific Time, 12 PM Mountain Time. Speaker Dr. Clifford Sadof is a retired Professor of Entomology at Purdue University where his extensive research and outreach on emerald ash borer has significantly contributed to national efforts to mitigate the impact of this pest on urban and natural forests."
