Plant semiparasites on trees in the context of global climate change. Over the past five years, the territory from Sovetsk to Olsztyn is affected by the wood semi-parasitic bushes of the mistletoe (Viscum album (L.)) by more than 60%.The area of distribution of mistletoe is limited to territories with average annual temperatures of +10 C, therefore, by tendency to warming, we are only at the beginning of the problem. On the other hand mistletoe has a medical properties. It is an unacceptable luxury not to use the potential of the region as a source of this medicinal raw material. Therefore, the development of methods for collecting this plant can be considered the main scientific aim of our project. Tasks of the project: Determine the number of affected plants. Give an exact species characteristic of semiparasite (with genome analysis). Get the water extract of mistletoe and describe its properties (esp. antifungal). Develop a methodology for biological tree cleaning from mistletoe. Hold master classes for the manufacture Christmas decoration from mistletoe.
