China and the origins of Dutch elm disease: an appraisal.

1990-03-01

Abstract excerpt

Circumstantial evidence has led to the widespread assumption that Dutch elm disease (caused by Ophiostoma ulmi) spread to Europe and North America from China. The author's recent surveys indicate that the disease is probably absent from China, and only a relatively recent arrival in the Soviet Tien Shan mountain region on the western Chinese border. Alternative origins for the disease include introduction from the...
