New spread of dwarf mistletoe (Arceuthobium oxycedri) in Juniper forests, Ziarat, Balochistan, Pakistan.

Atta Mohammad Sarangzai; Nasrullah Khan; Muhammad Wahab; et al. Pakistan Journal of Botany 2010

Other claims from this paper (8)

Observation Mistletoe disease was discovered at four new Ziarat forest locations.
Observation Most infected Salam Valley trees had severe infection at DMR 6.
Observation Most Ziarat valley trees had light infection at DMR 1.
Observation In Salik Sakhobi, half the infected trees were severe at DMR 6.
Observation In Salik Sakhobi, half the trees were less infected at DMR 1 or 2.
Observation Narai Valley had the most severely infected trees, at DMR 4 to 6.
Mechanism Wind, birds and small mammals were proposed as likely vectors of rapid spread.
Observation Newly infected areas appear to extend the Chasnak and Sasnamana infestation.
