Abstract

By most indications, the fate of all North American native and non-urban ash (Fraxinus spp.), in the wake of emerald ash borer (EAB), is bleak. This study is concerned with creating a better understanding of the potential replacements of black ash (Fraxinus niger) in native stands in the Northwoods (northern Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan) as the ash dies out.
