Cameraria ohridella

[arb culture]

Interestingly, looking out of the window at Manchester Uni on Monday during the AA conferance, I was suprised to see two Horse Chestnuts completely unaffected by Cameraria.

 

Has to be said that these were enclosed by high story uni buildings, and possibly have their leaves removed in late fall.

 

There was however a small amount of Guignardia on the leaves.

 

 

.

 

There's still quite few in that part of the world unaffected. Unfortunately more and more are getting it.

Hey guys,

 

I am literally just starting a dissertation on HCLM and bleeding canker, and the negative impact it is having on the trees, sadly I can't carry out my own research/surveys..... however after reading all the posts it appears that you are an educated bunch, so was wondering if you could point me in the direction to find relevant articles and journals!?

 

I have already trawled through endless copies of Arboricultural Journal, and have just started going through http://www.forestresearch.gov but if anyone else has any other information I would really really appreciate it.

 

Also if you have any information but do not know where you read/found it could you put your name and job title afterwards for my referencing purposes please.

 

Thanks again

Steve.

Wesste,

 

Have you tried the journal search engines such as CabDirect and Web of knowledge. Its the easiest way to find exactly what your looking for.

[Wesste]

Doug,

 

Yer thanks for the suggestion.... Literally just had a talk yesterday on finding information (typical!). Others that were suggested were sciencedirect, land life and leisure and the ones you suggested. Have found that sciencedirect seems to hold the most relevant ones.....
