Abstract
IN our investigation of tree diseases in
Illinois the cases of disease of oak that
have been brought to our attention
have increased each year since 1934. These
cases have consisted mainly of canker and
dieback diseases of small to large branches.
Species of Gnomonia, Marssoni, Phyllostica and Septoria, some of the fungi
that cause leaf diseases, have been studied
by other investigators, and control measures
have been recommended. Many
heart-rot and a few root-rot fungi, namely,
species of Armillaria. Fomes, Hydnum.
Polyporus, Stereun and Ozonium, have
been studied by others in relation to their
parasitism of oaks. Only a few twig-blight
and twig- and branch-canker producing
fungi, principally Cytospora chrysosperma(Pers.) Fr., Diplodia longispora Cke. & Ell., Nectria cinnabarina Fr., N. galligena Bres., N. ditissima Tul. and Strumella
coryneoidea Sacc. & Wint., have been investigated
by other workers.
The diseases of oak studied by the author
and the fungi associated with them are
described in this paper.
