Abstract Small patches of dead trees were common among 7‐ to 15‐year‐old Pinns contorta var. latifolia in Alberta, Canada. The sizes of clones of Armillaria ostoyae , determined by pairing diploid isolates, was larger than these patches. Pairing diploid isolates on strips of Betula papyrifera provided a clear indication of clonal relationships.
