What is Oak Wilt?Oak Wilt is a disease caused by a fungus called Ceratocystis fagacearum.
This fungus causes a clogging of the water conducting vessels of infected oak trees, causing the trees to wilt and die.

Tip Burn can be a foliar indicator of oak wilt.
Accompanying indicators such as a “pattern of mortality” should be considered when making an accurate field diagnosis.

How Does Oak Wilt Spread?
The Oak Wilt Fungus Can be Spread In Two Primary Ways:
UndergroundThrough grafted or joined root systems
Above GroundInsects carry fungal spores from infected red
oaks to fresh wounds on healthy oaks

Disease Transmission
Root Grafts (95%)
Insect Vectors (5%)

Root Graft
Root Grafting can also take place on individual (planted) trees.
Inter-species grafting is possible.

Current Treatments & Recommendations
–Utilize Proper Tree Care Precautions - (Prevention)(Avoid Wounds Paint All Injuries Hire Qualified Arborist)
–Remove & Dispose of Infected Red Oaks - (Prevention)–Trench Around Expanding Centers - (Intervention)–Inject Fungicides into Threatened Oaks - (Therapeutic)
–Replant with Disease Resistant Trees (Favor a diversity of tree species in the landscape)

Infected Red Oaks should be destroyed
immediately by Burning, Burying, or
Chipping/Composting.
This practice will help reduce the potential
ABOVE GROUNDspread where the fungal spores are
transported to healthy trees by
insects.

Management - Root Graft Disruption
Physically isolate healthy trees from infected trees to prevent the disease from spreading.
