The most distinguishable weeping stem lesions, from which four species bacteria have been isolated: Brenneria goodwinii, Gibbsiella quercinecans, Lonsdalea britannica Rahnella vict...

U radu se prikazuje pregled dosadašnjih saznanja o Akutnom odumiranju hrastova (AOH), u svijetu opisanom kao AOD (Acute oak decline). Ova polimikrobna bolest je nedavno otkrivena Hrvatskoj (2021. godine) na poluotoku Pelegrin (otok Hvar), gdje stablima hrasta crnike zadnjih nekoliko godina javljaju tipični simptomi: sušenje vrhova krošnje koje prate uzdužne raspukline kore, istodobno ispod kore...
