Mongolian pine forest decline by the combinatory effect of European woodwasp and plant pathogenic fungi

Abstract Interactions between the decline of Mongolian pine woodlands and fungal communities and invasive pests in northeastern China are poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the fungal communities occurring in three tree samples: the woodwasp Sirex noctilio infested, healthy uninfested...
