Abstrakt: The article discusses a research study on how healthy and compromised green ash trees respond to wounds caused by standard trunk injection treatments. Two green ash trees were randomly selected from each of seven trunk-injection treatments that were chosen to represent a range of efficacy based on the active ingredient and the insecticide was injected in relationship to the borer infestation. It suggests that tree injections are tolerated in healthy green ash and have the potential as a tool to protect trees against exotic and destructive pests.
