Armillaria root rot is found on many species of trees, shrubs, and vines throughout the world. It is caused by the fungus Armillaria mellea Vahl ex Fr. that invades the roots of woody species not only in forests, but in orchards, along roadsides, and even in gardens. A. mellea also causes a decay, seldom expending more than a few feet above ground, in the heartwood of boadleaf trees such as oak (fig. 1) and sugar maple, and in conifers such as western hemlock. Much of the older information about its effect on forest trees comes from studies and experience in Europe.
