The reading and the lecture are both about protection methods of trees from P. ramorum, a microscopic fungus which causes serious damage to oaks. The author of the reading provides three possible solutions for this problems. The lecturer challenges author’s claims. He says that none of the suggested solutions are applicable.
To begin with, the author argues that blocking spread of fungus spores can prevent tree destruction. The article mentions that spores transmit through human shoes and bike wheels, so shoes washing and bike scrubbers might become a possible solution. This specific argument is challenged by the lecturer. He claims that most part of spores spread among big area through water streams. Additionally, he says that control of water streams is difficult, so solution is not suitable.
Secondly, the writer suggests fungus-fighting chemicals as a fix for problem. They will not only kill the fungus, but also provoke trees’ natural defense mechanism. The lecturer, however, rebuts this by mentioning medication need to be injected directly and its duration for only couple of months. He says that it might be effective for few infected trees in park, but not for whole forest, because high financial expenses are required to inject enormous amount of trees every couple of month.
Finally, author of the passage posits that clear-cutting and burning of infected trees might be a solution. However, lecturer opposes by saying that cleaning will cause grater damage to environment than T.ramorum. This is because besides infected oaks other healthy and rare trees, which cannot grow back easily, will be cut.
