Book Description
Excerpt from A Forest Disease Survey of Alaska In the summers of 1952 through 1954 an extensive forest disease survey was made through out Alaska, and 250 fungus collections were made. The purpose of the survey was primarily to observe the general health of the native forest trees and to determine whether any epidemic dis ease conditions existed there. Much of the survey was by observations from the air, although brief observations were frequently made on the ground. As a part of the survey, the cull in commercially important forest trees was studied in Southeast Alaska3. This report is a brief summary of the general disease conditions found and a listing of the fungi collected during the survey.
