Overview

This 3-page publication discusses the symptoms, causes, and control methods to use to keep Hypoxylon canker at bay.

Hypoxylon canker appears as a dead lesion on limbs, branches, and trunks of affected oak trees. It develops under the bark, and, in advanced stages, causes a white rot decay that contributes to tree mortality, compromises the structural integrity of the tree, and makes it a danger to life and property. This publication discusses the symptoms, causes, and control methods to use to keep Hypoxylon canker at bay.
