The most important pathogen/pest biosecurity threats
1. Sudden oak death – Phytophthora ramorum
2. Filbert blight – Anisogramma
3. Xylella fastidiosa – Pierce’s disease
4. Truffle beetle – Leiodes cinnamomea

Sudden oak death (SOD)
• Host range of +100 species in 40 genera
• Quercus ilex is a known host, Q. robur + hazel are susceptible
• Mortality in oak populations in Western USA –killed > 5 million trees in California and Oregon
• Requires moist conditions for infection
• Survive in harsh environments

Dispersal
• Spread by windblown rain
• Humans (especially nursery
material)
• Soil
• Leaves persisting on trees can be infective for a year

Phytophtora ramorum
• Airborne
• Emerged in 1990s (2001 in USA)
• Three separate evolutionary events
• Four global migration events

• Infects Corylus avelana (hazels)
• Most of the canopy of susceptible trees is usually dead within 7 to 15 years after the first infection (if diseased limbs are not removed).
• Tree health declines slowly at first but then sharply after 3 to 10 years depending on the cultivar.
• Infection occurs in wet weather
End result
![Page 13: Truffle Tree Diseases ATGA Conference... · Sudden oak death (SOD) •Host range of +100 species in 40 genera •Quercus ilex is a known host, Q. robur + hazel are susceptible •Mortality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041518/5e2c8db8a1e890572f2dadcf/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Eastern Filbert Blight1. Caused by fungus Anisogramma anomala
2. Life cycle of 2 years
3. Latent period of 12-15 months – BAD NEWS
4. Infection occurs in spring - wet weather

Dispersal
1. Spores forcibly ejected
2. Wind-driven rain and splashing droplets spread spores to young, developing shoots

Control
1. Resistant cultivars is the ONLY option
2. All C. avellana used in Australian truffle industry would be highly susceptible

Disease survey 2015-2018
• ACT/NSW, TAS, WA
• Quercus robur
• Quercus ilex
• Coryllus avellana
![Page 22: Truffle Tree Diseases ATGA Conference... · Sudden oak death (SOD) •Host range of +100 species in 40 genera •Quercus ilex is a known host, Q. robur + hazel are susceptible •Mortality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041518/5e2c8db8a1e890572f2dadcf/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Diseases present in Australia: Hazels• Bacterial blight: Xanthomonas arboricola pv corylina
![Page 23: Truffle Tree Diseases ATGA Conference... · Sudden oak death (SOD) •Host range of +100 species in 40 genera •Quercus ilex is a known host, Q. robur + hazel are susceptible •Mortality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041518/5e2c8db8a1e890572f2dadcf/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Diseases and truffle yield
• Some diseases can cause tree death
• Most diseases cause either dieback, stunting or simply poor growth
Questions:
Do these diseases impact on truffle production?
![Page 24: Truffle Tree Diseases ATGA Conference... · Sudden oak death (SOD) •Host range of +100 species in 40 genera •Quercus ilex is a known host, Q. robur + hazel are susceptible •Mortality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041518/5e2c8db8a1e890572f2dadcf/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Do these diseases impact on truffle production?• Truffle production not influenced by: Small
stem cankers or tree vigour
– Surprising result for stem cankers – sampling error/only early onset of symptoms?
• Truffle production negatively influenced by: Branch dieback (which may be secondary and usually associated with poor drainage)
![Page 25: Truffle Tree Diseases ATGA Conference... · Sudden oak death (SOD) •Host range of +100 species in 40 genera •Quercus ilex is a known host, Q. robur + hazel are susceptible •Mortality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041518/5e2c8db8a1e890572f2dadcf/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Inoculation trials planned for Quercusrobur and Quercus ilex
• More fungi to include eg Discula quercine – oak leaf anthracnose
![Page 34: Truffle Tree Diseases ATGA Conference... · Sudden oak death (SOD) •Host range of +100 species in 40 genera •Quercus ilex is a known host, Q. robur + hazel are susceptible •Mortality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041518/5e2c8db8a1e890572f2dadcf/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Discula – oak leaf anthracnose
• Defoliation, twig and leaf dieback, leaf distortion and angular necrotic spots on mature leaves.
• Symptoms are usually most severe on the lower branches where moisture tends to remain for longer periods of time.
• Severe outbreaks have been known to kill nearly all the foliage on highly susceptible trees
• Outbreaks usually subside by mid-summer, as the leaves mature and become more resistant to pathogen.
• Succulent growth, however, can still be attacked at any time of the growing season when wet conditions are prevalent.

• Endophyte
• Most prevalent when conditions are moist
• Progresses from leaf infections to twig dieback and branch dieback
• Produce some secondary phytotoxic metabolites that may kill the tree

• Truffle root colonisation ranged from 70-100%.
• Some trees even produced truffles 1 year after inoculation
• Chemical treatment a viable option
