First definite report of natural infection of Fraxinus ornus by Hymenoscyphus fraxineus
Forest Pathology 45 (5), 430-432
Abstract: Hymenoscyphus fraxineus was isolated from four leaf rachises with necrotic lesions of flowering ash (Fraxinus ornus) seedlings, which had been planted on a forest site in Austria where they were exposed to a massive natural infection pressure. This represents the first definite report of natural infection of this ash species by the ash dieback pathogen.
