1 Testing the Effectiveness of a Native Fungus to Control Ailanthus in Ohio Forests Joanne Rebbeck, Don Davis, Joan Jolliff USFS Northern Research Station Penn State University
2 Ailanthus altissima Ailanthus or Stink Tree Tree of heaven The Ohio Woodland Journal Fall 2013 Kevin Lewis Matt Kasson
3 Ailanthus wilt found in PA forests Verticillium nonalfalfae Don Davis & Mark Schall Matthew Kasson Eric O Neil Penn State University Forest Pathology 2009 VA (6 sites) 2012 OH (3 sites) Earlier reports in 1915, , 1990s
4 Rapid Foliar Wilting
5 Declining Trees Dead trees
6 Kills vascular tissue Dying Ailanthus Healthy Ailanthus
7 Two Verticillium wilts that attack Ailanthus 1. Verticillium dahliae slow-killing >2 years common & widely distributed generalist **2. Verticillium nonalfalfae fast-killing <1 year more pathogenic infrequent
8 Fungal Isolate Comparisons Molecular sequencing identification All isolates are identical Pathogenicity on Ailanthus seedlings similar to PA and VA isolates Wilting began at 4 weeks Dead within 9 weeks Rebbeck et al Plant Disease 9 (7):999 Photo credit: Eric O Neal
9 Verticillium nonalfalfae Model Biocontrol Agent Native soil-borne fungus Highly selective for Ailanthus Natural transmission via root grafting, wounding Can persist in soil for years
10 Post-inoculation spread in PA canopy trees were inoculated 2011 >14,000 dead/dying trees and 10,000-15,000 sprouts killed Rate of spread ft/year Kasson et al 2014
11 Added bonus Ambrosia beetle may help move the fungus Euwallacea validus <1/8 long Euwallacea validus (female)(by J Hulcr) Hulcr, J
12 Regulatory Approval in Ohio Searched for naturally occurring infected stands ( ) Ohio Dept. of Agriculture approval for field studies in 2013 No regulatory issues with APHIS or ODA to use Ohio isolate (in state inoculum)
13 Host Range Testing: 71 species Kasson et al. Plant Disease 2015 Boxelder Japanese maple Striped maple (3%) Norway maple Red maple Sugar maple Red elderberry Staghorn sumac (16%) Poison-ivy Pawpaw Angelica tree European black alder Black birch American hornbeam Hophornbeam Japanese barberry Northern catalpa Doublefile viburnum Blackhaw Oriental bittersweet Burningbush Winter creeper Flowering dogwood Autumn olive Mountain laurel Great rhododendron Pink azalea Lowbush blueberry Silktree Eastern redbud Honey locust Black locust American chestnut American beech Northern red oak Chestnut oak American witchhazel Mock-orange Hickory Black walnut Northern spicebush Sassafras Corkwood Yellow-poplar Cucumbertree Black tupelo White ash American sycamore Hawthorn Apple Rome Sweet cherry Black cherry Multiflora rose Amur corktree Korean evodia White poplar Bigtooth aspen Royal paulownia Ailanthus American basswood Hackberry American elm Siberian elm Eastern red cedar Arborvitae Virginia pine Devil s walkingstick (17%)
14 Ohio Greenhouse Studies Greenhouse inoculations at Delaware Lab Ailanthus Oaks: black, chestnut, pin, red, scarlet, & white Hickories: bitternut, butternut, mockernut, pignut & shagbark Elm Ash Beech Tomato, alfalfa & soybeans To date no off-target effects
15 10 weeks post-inoculation
16 Ohio Field Research Demonstration study installed at Vinton Furnace and Tar Hollow State Forests in June 2014
17 Hack-n-Squirt Stem Injection of Ailanthus 1. Fungus is cultured on agar in lab 2. High concentration of spores in aqueous solution prepared 3. Ailanthus trees cut with hatchet & injected with fungus
18 2 weeks after inoculation
19 8 weeks after inoculation
20 15 weeks after inoculation
21 US FS Forest Health Program Biocontrol Grant Inoculated and monitoring Ailanthus in 5 SE Ohio forests since 2015 Monitoring for off-target effects Studying aftermath regeneration within inoculated stands Partners: Ohio Division of Forestry, Wayne National Forest, The Wilds, & Penn State
22 5 study sites: 4 plots inoculated + 1 control plot per site 10 Ailanthus trees per plot (>2.4 dbh) Plots are 20 X 50 m (66 x 164 ft)

26 The work continues Alternate ways to culture fungus Fungal inoculum has short shelf life Infected wood chips to inoculate Ailanthus Assess off-target effects
27 Studying off-target effects In PA: natural infections of V. nonalfalfae fungus were observed Striped maple (3%) Staghorn sumac (16%)
