Dear all
Thank you to all those that have already submitted their abstracts for the upcoming meeting of IUFRO Working Group 7.03.13 ‘Biological control of forest insect pests and pathogens’, which will take place at Future Africa in Pretoria, South Africa, from 6-8 November 2019.
We have decided to extend the abstract submission deadline to 1 July 2019. Please ensure that you don’t miss this date, as we are unlikely to be able to extend the deadline further.
Information on the post-meeting field trip is now available on the website. The field trip will be a great way to conclude the meeting, including stops to view and discuss forest insect pests and their management, as well as exposure to some of South Africa’s incredible native fauna and flora. And of course an excellent opportunity to engage with fellow researchers.

Subject: Sooty bark disease in Sycamore (by the fungus Cryptostroma corticale)
Dear Dr. Rioux,
I would like to ask about a forest disease in maples. In Germany we tend to get a big problem with Sooty bark disease in Sycamore maple trees. We noticed forest stands, where more than 50 % of the trees are dying.
Since there is only little in literature I would like to ask if You could give me information about your experience. We especially need to know how to remove trees and if there is a great risk for human health.
I would be happy if you could give some advice or a contact person in phytopathology.
Thank you and kind regards, Nicole Burgdorf
