4. Comparative variation in Hymenoscyphus albidus. Hymenoscyphus albidus (Ha) has been known on ash in the UK since the 19th century but is not regarded as a pathogen. Hymenoscyphus albidus and H. pseudoalbidus are distinct but sufficiently closely related that they might interact by exchanging genes or parasites. We will investigate the ecological and genetic relationship between Hp and Ha to discover what potential there is for deleterious dsRNA species to be transferred between the two Hymenoscyphus species that would contribute to long-term inhibition of H. pseudoalbidus and thus to control of Chalara ash dieback.
