DNA sequencing shows young trees are more likely to have gene variants that confer partial resistance to a fungus that has ...

Ash trees are evolving resistance to a fungus which has decimated the species in recent years, a new study shows.

Scientists at RBG Kew and Queen Mary University of London have found evidence that young ash tree populations are evolving ...

An invasive beetle that kills ash trees has made it to the Nashville area. As a result, up to 13% of Tennessee's trees could ...

Natural selection is acting upon thousands of locations within the ash tree DNA, driving the evolution of resistance as the ...

Ash dieback, which was first seen in the UK in 2012, causes leaf loss and crown dieback and can lead to tree death, with fears it could wipe out up to 85% of Britain’s native ash trees, as they ...

The Emerald Ash Borer has been detected in Denver nearly a decade after city officials began preparing for the invasive ...

Because the fungus takes much longer to kill large trees than young ones, Buggs’s team was able to compare the genomes of 128 adult European ash trees (Fraxinus excelsior) and 458 saplings at a ...

Ash trees in the UK are rapidly evolving resistance in response to ash dieback disease, DNA sequencing of hundreds of trees has shown. The finding is good news, says Richard Buggs at the Royal ...
