According to the story, the culprit is a mold that affects over 900 species of plant life around the world.
Interesting story, right up until the end, where they close with this quote:
"It is a case of mankind unwittingly changing his environment for the worse."
That was said by one of the tree farmers who is dealing with the mold. Did man spread this mold by transplanting trees? It *is* described as "world wide". Or did man somehow create the mold? There's no way to tell from the story because there is nothing to indicate that this problem is anything other than mother nature being herself. It's always safe to blame mankind though.
