One consequence of the disappearance of OLMEDA PINE ROAD to add to the already negative, such as whether the disappearance of a whole tree ( wildlife refuge, CO2 sink, producing oxygen, soil protection, etc..) is the general weakening of the elm trees, probably centuries old, the road side. This weakening is due to the massive root breakage caused these trees to remove this elm, which undoubtedly came from sprouts produced by the roots of these elms.
The weakness is manifested by the abundance of dead branches that have the tops of these trees. Parallel to the death of branches produced by the imbalance between the cup and the root system, weakened trees are more prone to attack by insects that feed on the inner bark of these branches (bark beetles) among those who are some beetles of the genus Scolytus , insect vectors of disease to DED (Ophiostoma novo-ulmi ) to transport the spores of this fungus attached to his body from one tree to another spreading the disease.
Hopefully
get these trees recover from this attack and continue living as now, as one of the few elms adults, individual trees that are in our municipality.
