Plant Importation Plant Importation

With the Age of Explorationcame a keen interest in
Botany. Plants were broughtTo Europe from all over theworld. Botanical gardensand private collectors vied
with each other for the largest and most exotic collections.
In 1865 alone, 460 tons of plants were imported into France,and by the 1890’s, the trade had grown to 2,000 tons. In 1875,
50 tons of vines were imported from the US.

An American botanist and plant explorer. Fairchild was
responsible for the introduction of more than 200,000 exotic plants and
varieties of established crops into the United States,
including soybeans, mangos, avocados, nectarines, dates,
bamboos, and flowering cherries. Certain varieties of
wheat, cotton, and rice became especially
economically important.

Engelbert Kaempfer was the doctor with the Dutch East India embassy to Japan in 1690. In 1691 he discovered Gingko biloba in a Buddhist monastery in Nagasaki. He brought seeds and planted them in the botanical garden in Utrecht. The original tree is still there. The species is approx.270 million years old.

The CPB, once it met the potato,began a reproduction frenzy. The
female can lay as many as 800 eggsin her lifetime. The eggs are laidin batches of 30 on the underside
of a leaf. The CPB populations wereso immense, that the beetles
devastated crops, filled houses and buildings. They reached Germany in
1877, but were eradicated. Then…

The habitat of the species was the high, drylands on the eastern slope of the northern Rocky Mountains. The species occurred at elevations of 2,000 to 10,000 ft. It was unable to
survive in low, moist areas for more than one generation. It was once found in greatest abundance in prairie lands with annual rainfall of less than 25 inches. As settlers moved
into its range during the western migration, they planted mostly grains. The locusts would swarm out of the Rockies and destroy the crops and anything green. They were destroyed when farmers moved into their breeding grounds and destroyed the species by 1902. It is
estimated that one swarm in 1874 covered approx. 198,000 square miles!

Drought Effects - Death Comes Gradually to Trees

What Happens in a Drought?A water deficit develops in the tree. Non-woody feeder roots and root hairs are particularly sensitive to drying and are affected first. They shrivel and become non-functional. They lose the ability to absorb water. The roots can no longer provide sufficient water to the top of the tree. The tree is forced to draw upon stored resources for survival. Additionally, many metabolic changes occur which substantially alter the physiology of drought-stressed trees.

Drought killed up to half a billion trees, Texas Forest Service estimates
2011 - 2013In 2011, Texas experienced an exceptional drought with prolonged high winds and record-setting temperatures. Together, those conditions took a severe toll on trees across the state. Large numbers of trees in both urban communities and rural forests have died or are struggling to survive. The impacts are numerous and widespread.

International Standards For Phytosanitary Measures, ISPM 15, requires that all international ocean freight shipments using any species of raw wood packaging must be fumigated or heat treated, prior the international shipping, to kill insects or fungus. All wood-packing materials used in international shipping must be stamped with the approved by IPPC stamp, prior the international shipping. International ocean freight shipments that contain wood-packing materials will be checked in respect of compliance with the ISPM 15 regulations before to be allowed to enter to or crossing through a participating to IPPC country.

It has been shown that the native California bay laurel is susceptible to this disease. Thus, it is highly probable that the disease will establish in California if the beetle spreads into the western United States.

Polyphagous shot hole borer (PSHB),Euwallacea sp.
• First detected in California in 2003– Whittier Narrows Recreation Area (LA Co.). This insect/disease complex was not linked
to tree injury and mortality until 2012 in LA Co.
• PSHB in California was believed initially to be the tea shot hole borer, Euwallacea fornicatus, which had been introduced into Florida
• Recent molecular analyses suggest that the CA species of Euwallacea may be a new species (R. Stouthamer Laboratory, UCR)– The same species attacks hardwood trees and shrubs in Israel

Why are we concerned about PSHB in CA?
• PSHB attacks avocados
• California produces 90% of the nation’s avocado crop
• ~21,000 ha of avocados planted from San Luis Obispo to San Diego
• Crop valued at $382,000,000/yr
• And, avocados taste good

Summary
• PSHB is already impacting the native hardwood stands of southern California and the urban areas– Loss of hardwood stands can impact wildlife and
threatened and endangered species – Willow flycatcher, bell vireo, Arroyo toad, yellow-
legged frogs, western yellow-billed cuckoo, gray vireo, 3 bat species, and 6 snake species
• Its impact may be more prevalent in lower elevation hardwood stands on California sycamore, castorbean, and willow spp.– All size classes appear to be susceptible

The goldspotted oak borer (GSOB), Agrilus auroguttatus (Coleoptera: Buprestidae), is a flatheaded borer introduced to San Diego County, California, in the late 1990s or early 2000s and also detected at one site in Riverside County in 2012. It was likely brought into the state on oak firewood collected and transported from the insect’s native range in southeastern Arizona or northern Mexico.
Typical damage associated with GSOB-infested trees includes crown thinning and dieback, bark staining on the main stem, bark injury from woodpecker foraging, and D-shaped emergence holes on the main stem and larger branches of the tree. Following several years of extensive and repeated bouts of injury from larval feeding, tree health declines, and trees eventually die.
As of 2010, GSOB has killed an estimated 21,500 trees covering 1,893 square miles in San Diego County in forests, parks, and residential landscapes.

The insects attack coast live oak (Quercus agrifolia), California black oak (Quercus

80,000 native oaks so far.

The new disease of boxwood was first observed in 1994 in the UK, and a more severe outbreak occurred in 1997. Although the pathogen is considered to have been recently introduced there, it was already widespread in the UK by 2000. An isolate from New Zealand was determined to be of the same species and closely
related to the strains in the UK. Reports of C. pseudonaviculatum have since come from Belgium, Ireland, Germany, and the Netherlands, Italy, Austria, and
Spain.

The primary way this disease spread throughout Europe was the movement of infected plants and cuttings.
Another significant way this disease spreads is through contaminated tools and workers as well as by movement
of boxwood debris (especially fallen leaves). Human activities such as pruning also contribute to spread. The sticky fungal spores are readily moved on contaminated tools and equipment, on workers and animals that come into contact with infected foliage. The greatest potential
for long distance transport of box blight is the movement ‐of infected plants, cuttings, people and tools.

New infections are caused when spores move from infected plants in wind-driven rain or water splashed from overhead irrigation. The spores require free water or high humidity to
germinate and cause infection.
Microsclerotia are hard fungal masses that develop in diseased tissue, especially, in fallen leaves. These
structures, in other species of Cylindrocladium, have shown an ability to survive in soil and detritus for 10 years or more. Any method to significantly reduce the viability of these structures is a useful tool to a grower who has had to deal with this pathogen in the field, especially if they intend
to grow boxwoods again.

The foliage typicallybecomes blighted, causingthe leaves to turn ‘straw’ tolight brown in color. These
leaves will defoliate, makingthe plant unsalable. Often
the stems of blightedboxwoods will remain greenunder the outer bark until a
secondary invader oropportunistic pathogen
attacks this tissue,eventually killing the entire
plant.

How the fungus arrived in the North America is unclear, but by 2011, it had been found in CT, MA, MD, NC, NY, OR, PA, RI, VA, Ontario, Quebec, and British
Columbia. It was found in three nurseries in Oregon in December 2011. To date boxwood blight is known to
infect all species of boxwood, Buxus spp. and Pachysandra spp. in landscapes, garden centers, and
nurseries.

Control •Inspect new plants and cuttings; only buy from reputable
nurseries.
•Isolate new plants from other boxwoods
for at least one month, longer if
possible.
•Avoid overhead watering.
•Avoid working around wet boxwood.
•Never compost infected material.
