A native canker is posing a growing problem for pines across New Hampshire and several other eastern states. Caliciopsis pinea can be found in dense pine stands in sandy and well-drained soils. Signs of possible C. pinea infection include cankerous growths and significant sapping, as well as crown thinning and decreases in crown density. |
