The volunteers were divided up into two groups with specialist for boring holes, applying inoculum, and taping the sites. One volunteer was in charge of reading the orchard map to make sure the proper trees were being treated. This process is quite simple once each member of the team learns his job. We encourage all members to help with inoculations next season, as our chapter will be inoculating thousands of trees over the next few years. These trees have been growing for seven years now and are of the proper size to challenge with two different strains of the chestnut blight. As this time, the only way we can tell if the correct number of genes for resistance were conferred to an individual tree is by seeing how each tree reacts to its blight wound. Most trees will succumb to this challenge but 8% of our trees will have the appropriate reaction to be spared and continue in our breeding program. The survivor trees will create nuts for our seed orchards. With one more selection, we will have trees with Massachusetts genes and blight resistance. <br>
