Ohia trees are dying rapidly, Why?

Update on the ROD here.

The average mortality rate of 11% a year in the ROD infected areas paints a very scary picture of what much of Puna may look like in another 10 years.

P.S. The few Ohia trees around the Mcdonalds in "Waimea" should probably get tested for the ROD because they are showing possible early signs and could be cut down or covered before the spore spreading happens. jmo
