Research Laboratory Technical Report - Beech Leaf Disease
Bartlett Tree Experts
Beech leaf disease (BLD) was first detected in 2012 in Ohio and has since spread across the eastern US and Canada. It is caused by Litylenchus crenatae mccannii (Lcm), a foliar-feeding nematode, and can result in host tree mortality within seven years. Symptoms include distinct banded leaves, premature leaf drop, and aborted bud development in Fagus spp.
