RAPID ʻŌHIʻA DEATH

by adminPosted onApril 1, 2016July 24, 2024

Rapid ʻŌhiʻa Death (ROD) is a fungal disease affecting native ʻōhiʻa trees in
Hawaii. Here are some key things to know about it.


RAPID ʻŌHIʻA DEATH


 * The disease is caused by two fungal pathogens – Ceratocystis huliohia and
   Ceratocystis lukuohia. These fungi block the vascular system of the trees,
   preventing water transport.
 * It was first detected in 2014 on Hawaii Island and has since spread rapidly
   across the entire state. The fungi can be dispersed long distances by wind,
   water and infected plant material.
 * ‘Ōhi’a trees are very important to Hawaii’s native forests and ecosystems.
   They provide habitat for endangered plants and animals and help prevent soil
   erosion.
 * Symptoms of ROD include wilted or discolored foliage, branch dieback and
   death of the entire tree within months or even weeks after infection.
 * There is no known treatment or cure once a tree is infected. Infected trees
   and debris must be removed to contain the spread.
 * The fungi have killed hundreds of thousands of ʻōhiʻa trees across Hawaii so
   far. ROD poses a major threat to native biodiversity and entire ecosystems
   dependent on ʻōhiʻa.
 * Conservation efforts focus on early detection, tracking the disease’s spread,
   public education and managing remaining healthy ʻōhiʻa forests. It remains an
   ongoing ecological crisis in Hawaii with no solution currently available.

HOW TO PREVENT RAPID ʻŌHIʻA DEATH?

Here are 5 things the public can do to help prevent the spread of Rapid ʻŌhiʻa
Death:

 1. Be on the lookout and report any suspicious trees. If you see an ʻōhiʻa tree
    showing symptoms like wilting, discolored leaves or dead branches, take a
    photo and contact your local invasive species committee. Samples need to be
    collected and tested to confirm ROD.
 2. Don’t transport ʻōhiʻa between islands. Moving live plants, cuttings or wood
    from infected areas is how the disease can spread. Follow all regulations
    regarding interisland transport of ʻōhiʻa.
 3. Avoid injuring or cutting ʻōhiʻa trees. Wounds in the bark allow entry for
    the fungi and increase the risk of infection.
 4. Clean your gear thoroughly. Spores can hitchhike on shoes, clothes and
    equipment so clean thoroughly before entering uninfected forests.
 5. Wash vehicles thoroughly. Invasive pathogens frequently spread via
    transportation, so wash vehicles thoroughly, especially tires and
    undercarriage, after traveling off-road to remove any clinging dirt. Take
    extra care when shipping vehicles between islands.

If you want to visit Hakalau Forest National Wildlife Refuge, please contact
them before you go.

The key message is for the public to be vigilant, avoid spreading infected
materials or introducing risks for new infections, and report any potential
sightings to help monitor and contain the disease.
