Fytosanitární rizika pěstování vybraných dřevin rodu Quercus a Juglans v době klimatické změny: review

Abstract

The review article deals with the silvicultural and phytosanitary risks, which may influence the use of oak and walnut species in the Czech Republic in the climate change. The study covers 12 species: eight oak species native to Central and South-Eastern Europe along with the North-American northern red oak, eastern black walnut, Persian walnut, and hybrids of the two walnut species. Future risks associated with cultivation of northern red oak and eastern black walnut were found to be most serious. On the contrary, Turkey oak and Hungarian should be considered a species suitable for most drought-exposed sites. Growing of the studied species in new areas and sites should follow adjusted silvicultural designs. These could include creation of mixed stands managed with due care of individual trees. The coppice with standards, coppice, and even transformation towards agroforestry systems may be suitable systems for the studied species.
