fraxineus from leaves to shoots and stems, and validating tolerance levels in ash species.
The project also explores the temporal and spatial interaction between ash dieback and Armillaria to assess whether affected trees are more prone to invasion and the potential wider impact on other woodland species such as oak.
The contract value is AUD 20,000.
