Forest and Plantation Soil Microbiomes Differ in Their Capacity to Suppress Feedback Between Geosmithia morbida and Rhizosphere Pathogens of Juglans nigra Seedlings

Geoffrey M. Williams et al.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of soil microbiomes from natural forests and plantations on the severity of Thousand Cankers Disease (TCD) in eastern black walnut trees. The results showed that soil microbiomes from natural forests suppressed the pathogen G. morbida and reduced the size of necrotic areas. Additionally, the fungal community composition in the rhizosphere was influenced by aboveground inoculation with G. morbida and varied depending on the type of soil. The findings suggest that the interaction between above- and belowground pathogens, as well as microbial interactions in the rhizosphere, can modulate the severity of TCD.

Eastern Black Walnut (Juglans nigra L.) Originating From Native Range Varies in Their Response to Inoculation With Geosmithia morbida

Rachael A. Sitz et al.

Summary: Thousand cankers disease is caused by the walnut twig beetle vectoring the fungal canker pathogen Geosmithia morbida, resulting in severe dieback and eventual death to walnut and wingnut species. Black walnut, particularly J. nigra, is highly susceptible to this disease, but genetic variation in resistance to G. morbida has been identified in black walnut populations. This study suggests that some black walnut trees have genetic resistance to G. morbida, providing hope for future breeding programs aiming to develop resistance to Thousand cankers disease.
