Ceratocystis species and their Thielaviopsis asexual states are typically associated with insects, such as nitidulid beetles, that spread them over long distances. Eucalyptus trees comprise a substantial component of the forestry industry in South Africa, however, limited information is available ...
A recent study to determine the cause of collar and root rot disease outbreaks of cold tolerant Eucalyptus species in South Africa resulted in the isolation of two putative new Phytophthora species. Based on phylogenetic comparisons using the ITS and β-tubulin gene regions, these species were show...
SYNOPSIS Eucalyptus nitens is a promising species for commercial afforestation in the cooler-temperate, humid region of South Africa where frosts are moderate to severe. In a trial of 12 provenances representing most of the entire natural range of the species and established at two locations on ...
In Brazil, the eucalyptus brown looper (T. arnobia) is the most important species of eucalyptus-defoliating caterpillars, with significant losses and constant occurrence. 3.1.1 Thyrinteina arnobia Thyrinteina arnobia, or eucalyptus brown looper, is the most important species of defoliating ...
saligna, and is concentrated in the Eastern and Northern Transvaal and along the sub-tropical coastal belt of Zululand where over 50,000 acres have already been planted to this species. Experimental work on the establishment of E. saligna plantation is described and the early results recorded....
The Mycosphaerella complex accommodates thousands of taxa. Many of these species are economically important plant pathogens, notably on native and commerci

It’s Role in the Wildfires ©Toa55/Shutterstock.com The problem with eucalyptus trees in California is twofold. For one, it’s an invasive species. To survive in its new home, eucalyptus competes with native plants, and it doesn’t support native wildlife. Second, the eucalyptus is not ...
However, for Eucalyptus radiata values of 1,8-cineole in the range 64–75% are often quoted, with values above this indicating Eucalyptus globulus or another species. The charts show a marked difference in the 1,8-cineole levels: the level is very high in Eucalyptus radiata but the compound...
The proteome plasticity of two different Eucalyptus species was analyzed in the study. G1 and G2 were the two genotypes G1 (taxon ID: 764271, also named 1–41) is a natural hybrid of Eucalyptus alba Reinw. ex Blume x unknown father and G2 (taxon ID: 765255, also named 18–50) is...
