In 1995 a microscopic fungus called Phytophthora ramorum, or P. ramorum, was first detected in the forests of the western United States. P. ramorum infects trees and causes particularly serious damage in oak trees: in many infected oaks, leaves wither rapidly, large cracks appear in the bark, and the trees die. A spread of P. ramorum represents a serious threat to the forests in the western states. Several methods of protecting the forests have been proposed.
First, stopping P. ramorum spores from spreading would surely be an effective method. Spores are small particles through which all fungi, including P. ramorum, reproduce. Researchers have discovered that many P. ramorum spores can be found along hiking or biking trails, suggesting human-assisted spread by way of shoes and bicycle tires. A few measures to prevent such human-assisted spread—like encouraging hikers to wash their shoes and installing new bike scrubbers on bicycle trails—would be an effective and low-cost way to stop the spread of P. ramorum.
Second, there are a few fungicidal (fungus-fighting) chemicals that can be used to protect the oak trees. Some of these chemicals stimulate the oak trees’ natural defenses against the P. ramorum fungus and have been found in small-scale tryouts to significantly reduce the likelihood that the oaks will be infected.
A third way to fight P. ramorum is a practice called clear-cutting. This approach starts with cutting and burning the diseased oaks, but it also involves cutting and burning the seemingly healthy vegetation (bushes and other kinds of trees) surrounding the oaks. This is done because some of the surrounding plants and trees may be infected even though they do not show any symptoms of the disease. Clearing large areas of vegetation in places where diseased trees are found is often an efficient measure to stop the spread of infections.
To begin with, prevented human-assisted spread would be an effective and low cost way to stop
the spread of P. ramorum. The article mention that researchers implying spores spread by way of shoes and bicycle tires, since spores have found along hiking or biking trails. this specific argument is challenged by the lecturer. He claims that even if prevented human spread that is actually stoped small spreading. Additionally, he says that long-distance water flow is the main reason to spread spores and to stop this slow can not possible, thus the spreading of spores would not possible.
Secondly, the writer suggests that using fungicidal chemicals could have eradicated and protec the oak trees. In the article, it is said that theses chemicals helps to oak trees against P. ramorum fungus and have found small scale tryouts to significantly reduce the likelihood. The lecturer, however, rebuts this by mentioning that injecting chemicals of oaks trees to protected is a very expensive and time-consuming and very complex procedure. he elaborates on this by bringing up the point that
it is needed to inject every oaks tree every month repeatedly, that's why it would not possible to a large number of forest oaks trees and it would not possible to inject every tree and every month.
Finally, The author posits that where the diseased trees are found to cleaning large areas of vegetation is an efficient way to stop the spreading of infections. Moreover, in the article, it is said that although this way some healthy vegetation cut and burned but those trees might have infected. In contrast, the lecturer's position is that this way sacrificed some rare trees and these trees are not to back and could not found. He notes that since this way eradicates some large number of healthy vegetation of surrounding, thus forest would be lost profound healthy vegetation and various rare trees.
