   		  <title>Fungus from California suspected of killing cypress trees worldwide</title>
		 <description><![CDATA[Genetic analysis has determined a fungus that has been causing cypress canker disease and killing trees in six out of the world's seven continents originated from California. The fungus, Seiridium cardinale, enters a tree through cracks in the bark. Once inside, it releases toxins that interfere with the flow of water, sap and nutrients, making the tree sick and eventually killing it.]]></description>
