The National Oak Wilt Symposium
Join us in Austin, Texas June
4-7, 2007 for the 2nd National Oak Wilt Symposium (NOWS), to be held
at the Austin
Hilton Hotel.
Plan to see oak wilt at its worst in
both urban and rural settings in Central Texas. Learn how private landowners,
arborists, local communities, cities, state and federal agencies are
working together to effectively manage this disease in Texas and other
States.
2007 will mark the 20th anniversary of
the Texas Cooperative Oak Wilt Suppression Project. Lessons learned
from this multiagency project will be discussed in both oral presentations
and field trips. Oak wilt researchers and management specialists from
across the United States will come together to present the latest findings
about the biology and management of this devastating tree disease.
The
Symposium will be highlighted by two days of oral presentations,
your choice of field trips, a Texas style social event, and ample time
to network with those directly involved in studying or managing oak
wilt. All
presentations will be made available in a published proceedings.

Oak Wilt Symposium Brochure (PDF).
