The Biscogniauxia atropunctata fungus, commonly known as Hypoxylon canker, was observed infecting oak trees near the Flag Pond and Lake Somerville Trailway in Texas on July 15, 2022. This image captures the distinctive black dots that appear on the bark of the affected trees, which are a hallmark of this fungal disease. The Hypoxylon canker is a significant threat to oak populations and can lead to tree mortality if left unchecked. – generated by AI

The image depicts a close-up view of an oak tree trunk affected by Hypoxylon canker disease caused by Biscogniauxia atropunctata fungus. The fungus creates large cracks and holes in the bark, which have allowed the wood to weather and become light gray with patches of black.

There are several small dark spots on the trunk that may be insect or rodent holes. The image highlights the damage done to the tree by this disease, which can cause significant harm to the structural integrity of the tree if left unchecked. – AI vision

Hypoxylon canker de hongo en roble (Biscogniauxia atropunctata) En el Flag Pond cerca del Lake Somerville Trailway cercano a la Nails Creek Unit del Somerville Lake State Park, Texas, 15 de julio de 2022. La imagen muestra una vista detallada del tronco de un roble afectado por la enfermedad del Hypoxylon canker provocada por el hongo Biscogniauxia atropunctata. El hongo crea grandes grietas y agujeros en la corteza, lo que ha permitido que la madera se desgaste y se vuelva gris claro con manchas negras. Hay varias pequeñas manchas oscuras en el tronco que pueden ser orificios de insectos o roedores. La imagen destaca el daño causado al árbol por esta enfermedad, que puede provocar un daño significativo a la integridad estructural del árbol si no se controla. – Spanish translation
