Approach
Reduce dominance of root disease sensitive species (e.g., Douglas-fir and grand fir) on root-disease-prone sites.
Tactics
- Regenerate and plant with species less susceptible to root disease.
- Thin out root-disease-susceptible species where less root-disease-susceptible species are abundant.
