• Apples were harvested from trees that were propagated from budwood collected in Kazakhstan and from seedling trees originating from seeds of the same trees as the Elite budwood or from other wild seedling trees in Kazakhstan. —  EurekAlert! - Breaking News
• ARS scientists have devised a way to freeze viable budwood from ash trees to help preserve the genetic diversity of these attractive native species, which are threatened by the emerald ash borer. —  PhysOrg.com - latest science and technology news stories
• (PhysOrg. com) -- Using cryopreservation methods, Agricultural Research Service (ARS) scientists have devised a procedure for storing frozen budwood from ash trees (Fraxinus) and thawing the delicate buds for later use in propagation. —  PhysOrg.com - latest science and technology news stories
• The stored budwood samples, along with conserved seed, can serve as a national source for reintroducing ash trees once the devastation from EAB can be controlled, according to Mark Widrlechner, a horticulturist with the ARS North Central Regional Plant Introduction Station in Ames, Iowa. —  PhysOrg.com - latest science and technology news stories
• Widrlechner co-developed the budwood cryopreservation method with plant physiologist Gayle Volk and colleagues at the ARS National Center for Genetic Resources Preservation in Fort Collins, Colo. —  PhysOrg.com - latest science and technology news stories
