Also, tremendous efforts are underway in the research arena in pheromone development for survey, treatment options, resistant germplasm identification, and much more." Thousand Cankers Disease (TCD) is a pest complex that is causing mortality in walnut in many western states. It is caused by the walnut twig beetle (Pityophthorus juglandis) and an associated fungus (Geosmithia sp. nov.). Black walnut (Juglans nigra) is highly susceptible to this disease, but TCD has not yet been found in the native range of black walnut.
