Abstract
RECENT ADVANCES IN TREE MAINTENANCE PRACTICES OF TRANSPLANTING, FERTILIZATION, PRUNING, WOUND DRESSINGS, PESTICIDES, AND TREE DISEASE CONTROL ARE BRIEFLY DISCUSSED. THE PAST FIVE YEARS HAVE WITNESSED MANY IMPROVEMENTS ON LARGE TREE-MOVING EQUIPMENT, INCLUDING A SELF-PROPELLED, TRUCK-MOUNTED MACHINE WHICH CAN DIG, TRANSPORT, AND PLANT TREES UP TO SEVEN OR EIGHT INCHES DBH (DIAMETER AT BREAST HEIGHT). A METHOD FOR ESTIMATING FERTILIZER REQUIREMENTS BASED ON THE ROOT AREA INVOLVED RATHER THAN ON THE TREE'S DBH HAS BEEN PROPOSED. THE HIGH COST OF MANUAL TREE PRUNING HAS LED TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF CHEMICAL PRUNING MATERIALS WHICH INHIBIT THE DIVISION OF CELLS. THE POSSIBILITY OF CONTROLLING DUTCH ELM DISEASE AND OTHER VASCULAR DISEASE BY TRUCK INJECTIONS IS NOW BEING WIDELY INVESTIGATED. /DOT/
