SUMMARY:Master Your Garden Series - Pathways of Invasion into Your Garden
DESCRIPTION:As part of the Orleans County CCE’s Master Your Garden Series\, on August 3\, Rachel Taylor\, WNY PRISM’s Community Science and Engagement Program Manager\, will present Pathways of Invasion into Your Garden. Protecting our lands and waters starts in our own backyard…. so let’s explore how invasive species spread into (and out of) your garden\, and what you can do about it! We’ll look at examples such as spotted lanternfly\, water hyacinth\, jumping worms and more! \nClass will be held at the Orleans County CCE Education Center. Class size is limited\, pre-registration is required.  Suggested donation: $5 per class. Register by calling 585-798-4265 or emailing klo54@cornell.edu.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Dutch Elm Disease and Resistance
DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Benjamin Held\, Senior Scientist\, and Ryan Murphy\, Researcher\, Department of Plant Pathology\, University of Minnesota \nFor nearly 10 decades\, the invasive DED pathogen Ophiostoma novo-ulmi has been decimating American elms (Ulmus americana) and other native elm species in Minnesota and across the country. The American elm once lined streets across Minnesota\, and for good reason. Its elegant form and tolerance to the harsh urban environment made it one of two premier canopy species. American\, along with red (U. rubra) and rock (U. thomasii) elm\, also provide critical benefits to ecosystem functioning\, wildlife\, and insects. Control measures so far have relied on sanitation and chemical control\, both of which are expensive methods considering the large numbers of trees affected. Varied disease resistance has been identified in a small number of elms; however\, additional genetic diversity is needed to combat a pathogen that has a changing virulence. Our elm selection program is aimed at identifying\, propagating\, and screening survivor elms for DED tolerance from across the state of Minnesota. In addition\, our reintroduction planting program will also return much needed DED resistant genotypes back into the landscape in both urban and natural forested landscapes. \n\nREGISTER HERE
