Subject: Webinar
Description: The American elm (Ulmus americana) was once a common street tree, but populations have been depleted by Dutch elm disease. Ash species (Fraxinus) have suffered losses from emerald ash borer. The American chestnut (Castanea dentata) was once the largest tree in eastern North America and nicknamed “the redwood of the East,” but now mostly grows as a shrub due to the introduction of chestnut blight. Will there ever be a chance of returning iconic tree species to the landscape for future generations? That’s the goal of resistance breeding in forest trees. In this webinar, Dr. Carrie Pike will discuss the process and importance of breeding trees for pest resistance.
