Dear Colleagues:
Attached is the final attachment for the IUFRO 2022 NH Foliar, Shoot, Stem and Rust Diseases of Trees to be held 6/27 to 7/1/2022 at the University of New Hampshire in Durham, NH. Also attached is the agenda and field trip descriptions.
https://www.iufro.org/science/divisions/division-7/70000/70200/70202/activi…
The registration cost of US$425 includes most meals and all field trips. Affordable accommodations is available at university dormitories. Registration and rooms can be reserved:

We have reached an agreement with the journal Frontiers in Forests and Global Change-Pests, Pathogens and Invasions to publish a special issue associated with the meeting. This is an opportune time because the Journal would begin receiving and publishing articles for the special issue in June, just as the Impact Factor is announced. There will be a lot of publicity around the journal at this time, which would, in turn, increase the visibility of the special issue.
If you would like to host the next "Foliage, shoot, and stem diseases" (7.02.02) meeting, please contact me via email at isabel.munck(a)usda.gov<mailto:isabel.munck@usda.gov> and copy Julio Javier Diez Casero at jdcasero(a)pvs.uva.es<mailto:jdcasero@pvs.uva.es>.
We look forward to hearing from you!

Subject: INVITATION - Forest Health events at the World Forestry Congress, 5 May 2022
THIS MESSAGE IS SENT ON BEHALF OF DR SHIROMA SATHYAPALA, FORESTRY OFFICER, NFO
Dear colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to two Forest Health events at the upcoming World Forestry Congress in Seoul, Republic of Korea from 2 to 6 May 2022.
The Congress is being organized in a hybrid format and events will be held both in person and virtually.
1/ SIDE EVENT: Forest Biosecurity as a Shared Responsibility – Towards A Global Framework
When? Thursday, 5 May 2022, 10.00-11.30am KST (Korean Standard Time)/3.00-4.30am CEST
How? For virtual participation in the Side Event, please register at https://fao.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_YrmuLIJuSOiVPhh3V5MsjA
More details: https://programme.wfc2021korea.org/en/session/f874dee9-3499-ec11-a507-a04a5…
This Side Event brings together experts in this field to introduce the proposed programme and formulate a draft proposal for further development of a guide. It is expected that the programme could be repeated for other sectors, informing ‘One Health'.
2/ Sub-theme 2 - Session 5: The role of forest genetic resources and integrated management of pests and diseases in maintaining healthy and resilient forests
When? Thursday, 5 May 2022, 14.30-16.00pm KST (Korean Standard time)/07.30-9.00am CEST
How? For virtual participation, register through the conference platform website: wfc2021korea.org/en/registration/register? and please bookmark the session, adding it to your personalized agenda in your participant account— click on "My Account” in the menu and then on the “My agenda” tab to access.
More details: https://programme.wfc2021korea.org/en/session/4d1031f3-c889-ec11-a507-a04a5…
Healthy and resilient forests are crucial for safeguarding biodiversity and maintaining ecosystem services. Genetic diversity and integrated pest management are nature-based solutions for continued adaptation of forests to climate change. Moreover, genetic diversity provides both resilience and resistance to stress factors and forest disturbances, such as outbreaks of pests and diseases.
This session will present recent advances in understanding the genetic basis of adaptive traits and resistance to pests and diseases, and integrated management of outbreaks of pests and diseases.
We are looking forward to welcome you in our events either in person or online.
With best regards,

7th Int. Workshop on the Genetics of Tree-Parasite Interactions in Forestry GTPI-2022: CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
Pontevedra, March 30th 2022
Dear Colleagues,
We are contacting you to share some exciting news! After a lengthy two-year delay, the 7th IUFRO International Workshop on 'Genetics of Tree-Parasite Interactions in Forestry - GTPI2022' will take place in Pontevedra (Galicia, Spain) from September 12-16th 2022. Please, feel free to disseminate this email and the accompanying flyer and announcement among your colleagues.
The call for abstracts is now open until May 15th.
Please submit your abstract at: https://forms.gle/TA1gtU4dAhEo8QvQ7<https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fforms.gle…>
Due to the uncertainty regarding the number of attendees, we encourage you to please answer this email (lsampedro(a)mbg.csic.es<mailto:lsampedro@mbg.csic.es>) and let us know if you are willing to attend the meeting.
Please also find a list of tentative session topics in the attached announcement. If you are interested in organizing or leading a specific session on a particular topic of your interest, please contact us.
In addition, the announcement also contains essential meeting information; this includes lodging and tentative registration fees, which are subject to change depending on the number of attendees and sponsorship. Although this will be an in-person meeting, we will offer online access (via live stream) to the conference for those unable to travel.
We will be offering several different ways for IUFRO members to receive financial support to attend this meeting. These funds are intended for those who have limited access to financial support from their home institutions. These funds are available only for those who have submitted an abstract for an oral or poster presentation.
The IUFRO all Division 7 (Forest Health, Pathology and Entomology) 2022 conference has been scheduled in Lisbon, Portugal, from 6 to 9 September 2022, precisely for being able to attend both meetings. Pontevedra is a five-hour drive from Lisbon. We are planning to charter a bus from Lisbon to Pontevedra for those interested in attending both meetings.
The full conference information, including sponsorship and programme details, will be regularly updated on our website www.GTPI2022.csic.es<https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gtpi20…>, which be launched by April 15th. Please also feel free to email Luis Sampedro for more information: lsampedro(a)mbg.csic.es<mailto:lsampedro@mbg.csic.es>
Looking forward to seeing you in Pontevedra.
Best wishes,
Luis Sampedro, Rafael Zas and the GTPI2022 scientific committee.
You are on this mailing list because you have attended previous events or previously expressed interest in GTPI2022. Please reply to this email and let us know if you are no longer interested and you will be removed from the list.

Dear All,
Some much needed good news from Matteo below.
Regards, Tod
Dear Colleagues,
I am very excited to announce that the 10th IUFRO "Phytophthora in forests and natural ecosystems" conference, scheduled between June 19th and June 25th 2022 in San Francisco and U.C. Berkeley, will take place as planned. We have more than 60 people already preregistered! Thanks to all those who have met the deadline: it really makes a huge difference for us organizers.
The conference can host a few more participants on a first come first serve basis until capacity is reached. If you missed the preregistration deadline, write to me at matteog@berkeley and I will help you get preregistered at the same "early bird" preregistration and registration rate.
Starting April 15th 2022, preregistration will no longer be possible, but a limited number of additional participants may be able to register at a higher late registration rate on a first come first serve basis and only if capacity has not been reached. Stragglers will have to email me at matteog(a)berkeley.edu<mailto:matteog@berkeley.edu> to inquire about availability.
We are truly happy to host the conference and looking forward to reuniting with colleagues/friends!
Matteo and Doug

Dear all root and stem rots scientists,
I am terribly sorry to have to inform you and this late, that the root and stem rots conference must be delayed again. Three unfortunate reasons for this delay relates to 1) the pandemic, 2) the more recent war in Europe and 3) the fact that the use of the Division 7 sending list did only reach some few of you. We are still discussing how to proceed and one suggestion has been to postpone the Mexican organisation until 2025 to let them have a physical meeting and try to organize a digital version again this autumn in October. Many of us would really like to see the Mexican conditions and therefore not wasting their energy on a virtual conference later this year.
I am terribly sorry for this extremely late information to many of you. I am indeed very humbled by the present situation.
My very best regards and wishes for a more peaceful world
