Environment
In the Midwest and eastern United States, conditions are usually favorable for spore production and beetle activity in spring and early summer.

Frequency of root graft formation, and therefore root graft transmission, is affected by soil type and stand composition (diversity of tree species). See disease cycle and management sections for details.
