- Abstract
The article presents a study which investigates the incidence of eastern spruce dwarf mistletoe or Arceuthobium pusillum in Minnesota black spruce or Picea mariana. The study is investigated using the mistletoe in 11% of surveyed stands in northern Minnesota and the mistletoe in 56% of the surveyed stands in a specific-pest survey, which were reconciled in a Bayesian hierarchical framework. The study has predicted 35-59% of black spruce stands infested with dwarf mistletoe in northern Minnesota.
