Title : | THE MOST IMPORTANT FUNGI ON WYCH ELM (ULMUS GLABRA) TREES IN MONTENEGRO |
Abstract : | This paper contains results of investigation of the most important fungi found on wych elm (Ulmus glabra) trees in Montenegro. During the monitoring, 21 fungal species were found on wych elm (Ulmus glabra) in Montenegro. Fungus Ophiostoma novo-ulmi was the most frequent on young trees while species Fomes fomentarius and Daldinia concentrica were the most frequent on old trees. Fungi Mycosphaerella ulmi and Stegophora ulmea were the most common species on leaves. Majority of fungi in this study was for the first time recorded on wych elm (Ulmus glabra) in Montenegro. Obtained results will contribute to knowing about fungi associated with Dutch elm disease as well as fungi colonizing healthy trees left to spontaneous growth. |
