Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Fungal Diseases of the Common Larch This book arose from an investigation which Sir William Schlich asked me to make into the larch canker, a disease on which many articles and papers have been published, though no full and connected account of it has ever been written in English. While studying the canker in the field, I very frequently encountered certain other diseases on the larch, especially the heart-rot and the honey fungus, and it seemed better to include these in the scope of the investigation. For the sake of completeness, all the known diseases on the common larch have also been described, and it is hoped that a book of more general usefulness has been thereby produced. Certain fungi, such as Lophodermium laricis and Botrytis cinerea, which have occasionally been reported as parasitic on the larch, have been omitted, as no reliable evidence of their causing disease has been forthcoming. The arrangement of the diseases bears no relation to the systematic position of the fungi. They are mostly given in the order in which they were studied, which approximates closely to the order of their importance. The work was made possible by a grant from the Development Commissioners, received through the Board of Agriculture and Fisheries, and latterly through the Interim Forest Authority. Especial acknowledgement is due to these departments, particularly to the last named, which has assisted me in a variety of ways. I also desire to thank Sir William Schlich for constant help and encouragement, and Messrs. A. W. Borthwick and Malcolm Wilson for permission to reproduce Fig.72 from the Transactions of the Royal Scottish Arboricultural Society.
