摘要：The ash dieback pathogen Chalara fraxinea is reported
for the first time from the Austrian province
Carinthia. In August 2008 it was isolated at three localities
from young Fraxinus excelsior trees showing
early symptoms of disease. Disease inspections at
two sites revealed that flowering ash (Fraxinus ornus)
has not been affected by ash dieback so far. Previous
surveys and the detection of C. fraxinea in Carinthia
have confirmed that this pathogenic fungus is widespread
in Austria. Although incidence and severity of
ash dieback are presently low in Southern Carinthia,
the importance of this new forest health problem may
increase in Austria’s most southern province in the
future.
