Highlights of the CODIT model system, which shows how trees compartmentalize after being wounded, are presented along with specific recommendations about how to prevent, diagnose, and treat decay in trees. A list of useful publications about new ideas in tree care, the expanded concept of decay in trees, information packages and models, diagnosis of the internal condition of trees, wound dressings, tree injections, the use of bolts and rods, and new research is provided.
