Notes
When the white pine blister rust fungus was first discovered in Maine in the 1900\'s, logging companies panicked and planted large stands of rust-resistant red pines as a stop-gap measure to ensure there would be pulp trees to harvest in the future. However, it turned out that blister rust was containable by eliminating gooseberries, currents and other host plant for the fungus.
