  Oak Wilt Home Page, David L. Roberts, Ph.D.
, caused by Ceratocystis fagacearum, is a lethal disease of oak (Quercus sp.).
Many oaks have suddenly died and individuals are perplexed with regard to the cause of death of their oaks.

  Great Lakes Ecosystem: 1994 Proceedings of the Midwest Oak Savanna Conferences [White]
Scrubby oak openings have given way to bodies of tall timber, hazle brush thickets to groves of thrifty young walnut and hickory trees, and the boundaries of timber in places have extended far into what were then marshy prairies, covered with weeds, grass and clumps of willows.
The trees are generally oak, arranged in pretty clumps or clusters upon the smooth grass —or in long avenues, as if planted thus by man. From their limbs hang pretty vines, as the pea vine — lonicera flava, honey-suckle — and white convolvulus.
Oaks and hickories can survive as bushes if fires repeatedly kill their stems, so barrens often had thickets of oaks and hickories that repeatedly burned and resprouted from long-lived and well-developed root systems (known as "grubs").
