<div>Hello Canufnet:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Do you know of any research that indicates whether resistance to DED is
affected by tree health/vigour? Much of what I can find indicates that
trees are being selected based on their resistance to DED but it isn't clear
if the tree is just not susceptible to DED or whether it is actively fighting
the disease. If the latter, one would expect that the tree would be more
prone to infection when it has been otherwise compromised (e.g., new sidewalk
cut into its roots.) Thoughts?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thank you.</div>
