Hintikka T. J. (1937). On fasciations and witches‘ brooms on (European) bird cherry trees (Prunus padus L.). Acta Forestalia Fennica vol. 45 no. 2 article id 7334. https://doi.org/10.14214/aff.7334

Abstract

The article presents six fasciations found in Finland on bird cherry trees. Based on the literature it seems that fasciations are the precondition for witches’ brooms. The witches’ brooms on bird cherry trees are rare, but they have been mentioned in literature. Some views on their occurrence and development are represented. Also the possible causes behind the developments are discussed based on literature.

The PDF contains a summary in Finnish.
