The purpose of this research is to document and identify the cascade effects of an invasive pathogen on the soil microbial communities. Sudden Oak Death (Phytopthora ramorum) is an invasive oomycete that is killing tanoak trees (Notholithocarpus densiflorus), which are a dominant member of coastal Californian forests. Researchers are documenting the loss of tanoaks due to the disease and the resulting effects on plant community dynamics, but the symbiotic fungi associated with trees are undoubtedly also being affected by the disease. I am interested in documenting the effect of the invasive pathogen selectively removing a major ectomycorrhizal host tree on the ectomycorrhizal communities.
