Sapstreak disease is a potentially serious problem of sugarbushes and forest stands. It occurs when the causal fungus, Ceratocystis virescens, invades the sapwood of roots and bases of stems through wounds inflicted during logging, saphauling, or other activities. This bulletin describes how to recognize the disease, the factors that affect its occurrence and development, and management approaches to help reduce its effects.
