  2. Girdling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Girdling

    The practice of girdling has been known in Europe for some time. [4] Another example is the girdling of selected Douglas-fir trees in some Northern California oak woodlands, such as Annadel State Park, in order to prevent that Douglas-fir from massive invasion of the mixed oak woodland. [5] Girdling can be used to create standing dead wood, or ...

    Trees located in areas with animals such as beavers are vulnerable since beavers chew off the bark at a fairly precise height. This process is known as girdling, or ring-barking, and can be used for agricultural purposes. For example, enormous fruits and vegetables seen at fairs and carnivals are produced via girdling.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge_graft

    This damage is often caused by rodents and lagomorphs, stripping and girdling the tree. The inability to transport sugars causes stored nutrients to deplete, resulting in the plant's death.

  8. Thousand cankers disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thousand_cankers_disease

    However, as the cumulative effects of the girdling progress increasingly large areas of the tree are affected. Sudden leaf wilting, ultimately involving large limbs, characterizes end stage thousand cankers disease. In susceptible hosts, trees are almost always killed within 2–3 years after external symptoms of leaf yellowing are first observed.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phytophthora_citrophthora

    Other common symptoms include dark longitudinal lesions forming at the soil line, a sour smell, and eventual cracking of the bark. Advanced symptoms include yellowing and necrosis of the tree canopy. [1] Girdling action caused by the pathogen around the trunk can often cause the collapse of the tree.
