We assessed the mycelial growth rate of Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, the causal agent of ash dieback, on agar media containing leaf extracts of seven common Mediterranean species of the Oleaceae (Fraxinus excelsior, F. angustifolia, F. ornus, Ligustrum vulgare, Olea europaea, Phyllirea latifolia and Syringa vulgaris). The pathogen grew on all media, but growth rates showed significant differences among media and H. fraxineus isolates. Growth rates were highest on media containing F. excelsior and F. angustifolia, intermediate on media containing O. europaea and P. latifolia and lowest on those containing F. ornus and L. vulgare.

Abstract

We assessed the mycelial growth rate of Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, the causal agent of ash dieback, on agar media containing leaf extracts of seven common Mediterranean species of the Oleaceae (Fraxinus excelsior, F. angustifolia, F. ornus, Ligustrum vulgare, Olea europaea, Phyllirea latifolia and Syringa vulgaris). The pathogen grew on all media, but growth rates showed significant differences among media and H. fraxineus isolates. Growth rates were highest on media containing F. excelsior and F. angustifolia, intermediate on media containing O. europaea and P. latifolia and lowest on those containing F. ornus and L. vulgare.
