Abstract:Plant diseases are mostly multicausal with several factors influencing the health status of affected hosts. Common ash (Fraxinus excelsior), a significant tree species of European forests, is currently mostly endangered by ash dieback, caused by the invasive fungus Hymenoscyphus fraxineus. However, contributing factors, including pathogenic viruses, are poorly understood. Here, we report the results of a virus screening conducted on selected special stands of F. excelsior. Over three consecutive years, ash tre… Show more
