Eucalypt Disease Screening update, p. 34.  aIn 2016, we conducted a study to compare the wood properties of four eucalypt species in Uruguay. This is the first of what we hope will be many years of experiments characterizing the wood properties of eucalypt species across a wide range of environments around the world. //In 2015, Camcore began a project to screen eucalypt species for resistance or susceptibility to several pathogens of concern across our membership, specifically Puccinia psidii, Botryosphaeria, and Teratosphaeria (Coniothyrium canker). Screening efforts are being coordinated by Weyerhaeuser in Uruguay (in partnership with INIA) and Smurfit Kappa Colombia (SKC). In Uruguay, Weyerhaeuser and INlA established a field screening trial for Coniothyrium in March 2016 that includes 1,600 seedlings representing the 12 eucalypt species and resistant and susceptible control clones planted across 20 replicates on a one-hectare plot. The first data are being collected at the time of this writing and should be delivered to Camcore soon. INIA and Weyerhaeuser also started their P psidii laboratory screening study with all 12 eucalypt species in December 2016 with data delivery to Camcore expected in early 2017. We are excited to receive this data and thank Jorge Martinez and Paola Molina (Weyerhaeuser) and Sofia Simeto, Pilar Gasparri, and Roberto Scoz (INIA) for their excellent work on this project.  aENFERMEDADES DE LAS PLANTAS  aEUCALYPTUS  aFORESTACIÓN  aMADERA  aPROPIEDADES DE LA MADERA  aURUGUAY  aEUCALYPT DISEASE  aWOOD PROPERTIES  tCamcore Annual Report, 2016, p. 33-34.
