- Virus Diseases of Trees and Shrubs
~Usually Ships Within 24 Hours
- -J. I. Cooper / Hardcover 288 pages, 2nd Edition / Published August 2007
This is the second edition of a widely-respected book covering all aspects of virus pathology concerning trees and shrubs.
The book commences with an outline of the features which distinguish viruses from other parasites and pathogens. It then describes current classification systems
and detection options before detailing in a standardized way, the relevant viruses and their associated diseases. The book concludes with an appraisal of two questions:
are trees reservoirs for viruses which affect food plants and are specific tree diseases linked with global warming and/or atmospheric pollution? This new edition contains
much new information, including details of a new taxonomic system, recently recognized virus-like pathogens and a changing approach to the subject of virology. The
inclusion of a colourplate section is of great value for symptom recognition. The author, Dr Cooper, who is an acknowledged expert on plant virology, has provided a
book which will be of great value to professional horticulturalists, plant pathologists, foresters and urban planners as well as to teachers, researchers and students
of plant pathology.

- Rust Diseases of Willow and Poplar
~Usually Ships Within 24 Hours
- -M. H. Pei, Alistair R. McCracken / Hardcover 264 pages / Published May 2005
There is increased interest in growing willow and poplar trees, as fast-growing species that have several purposes, including use as biofuels for energy production.
However, silviculture is constrained by diseases such as MelampsoraA rusts, which have ben extensively studied over the past two decades. As a result, they are now
one of the best-understood tree pathogens in terms of population biology, genetics of resistance and disease control using host-genotype mixtures. This book is the
first to provide a comprehensive review of our knowledge of rust diseases of willow and poplar trees.

- American Chestnut: The Life, Death, and Rebirth of a Perfect Tree
~Usually Ships Within 24 Hours
- -Susan Freinkel / Hardcover: 294 pages / Published November 2007
The American chestnut was one of America's most common, valued, and beloved trees--a "perfect tree" that ruled the
Eastern forests from Georgia to Maine. But in the early twentieth century, a terrible blight swept through the chestnut forests
with the force of a wildfire. Within forty years, the blight had killed close to four billion American Chestnut trees and left
the species teetering on the brink of extinction. It was one of the worst ecological blows to North America since the Ice Age--
and one that most experts considered beyond repair. In this important book the authur tells the dramatic story of the stubborn
optimists who refused to let this species die. In a compelling weave of history, science, and personal observation,
she relates their quest to save the tree through methods that ranged from classical plant breeding to cutting-edge gene
technology. But the heart of her story is the cast of unconventional characters who have fought for the tree for a
century, undeterred by setbacks or skeptics, and fueled by their dreams of restored forests and their powerful
affinity for a fellow species.

THE WASHINGTON INSTITUTE OF DENDROLOGY RESEARCH
The Washington Institute of Dendrology Research is a scientic and educational non-profit corporation based in Washington State.
Our primary goal is to build the Washingtion State Institute of Dendrology Research center. This important forestry patholgy research center
will be complete with up-to-date laboratories, research libraries, classrooms, greenhouses, tree nurseries, corporative and research
offices, dormitories, cafeterias, and support buildings for advanced tree pathology and entomology research and studies.
This will be a world class pathology research facility and will provide funding for critical tree pathology
research into the causes, control, prevention, and the eventual elimination of some of the invasive diseases that adversely affect the trees
of our forest lands, shade trees and our fruit and nut trees.
In addition the Washington Institute of Dendrology Research will work to find effective natural means to safely control
the many insects that harm the trees of our forests, our shade trees and fruit and nut trees.
The research work and the results of the funds provided will also be applied to the trees everywhere
well beyond the Pacific Northwest forests.
