The International Union of Forest Research Organisations (IUFRO) Conference: Foliar, Shoot, Stem and Rust Diseases of Trees Jointly organized by IUFRO working parties “Foliage, shoot, and stem diseases" (7.02.02) and "Rusts of Forest Trees" (7.02.05) is taking place in June of 2022 in Durham, New Hampshire, USA.
This international conference, which meets every two to four years, provides a great opportunity for discussion among colleagues working with rust, foliage and stem diseases of forest trees in different regions of the world. Plant pathogens do not recognize boundaries, therefore maintaining a global perspective when it comes to forest health protection is essential.
Topics of interest that will be covered at the conference include:
- invasive forest pathogens;
- disease management and control;
- plant defence;
- climate change;
- rust, foliage, shoot, and stem diseases.
The goal of this Research Topic is to feature recent advances in research concerning forest diseases, climate change and their management, welcoming abstracts presented at the IUFRO Foliar, Shoot, Stem and Rust Diseases of Trees 2022.
The Topic Editors IAM, JJDC, PB, PT and SM declare that they are affiliated with The International Union of Forest Research Organisations (IUFRO).
