The symptoms of this syndrome seem to be the same at different sites - with the exception of oak with’ in North America, the geographic range of declines coincides more or less with the natural range of oaks, but most of the reports from the past few decades deal with the European situation and less With such syndromes in America and Asia. So far, the decline of oaks is not yet fully understood. Pathogens play’ a role as predisposing and aggravating factors, but in general are not the primary cause of the decline. |
