Pests and diseases

The resistance of 'Jackson' to Dutch Elm Disease has not (< 1995) been confirmed by artificial inoculation.[1] The species as a whole is highly susceptible to Dutch Elm Disease and Elm Yellows; it is also moderately preferred for feeding and reproduction by the adult Elm Leaf Beetle Xanthogaleruca luteola [2], and highly preferred for feeding by the Japanese Beetle Popillia japonica [3] [4] in the United States. U. americana is also the most susceptible of all the elms to verticillium wilt.[5] [6]

Cultivation

Last listed in the Fall 1994 - Spring 1995 catalogue of the now-defunct Arborvillage Farm Nurseries, Holt, Missouri. The tree is not known to have been introduced to Europe or Australasia.
