The article summarizes our research results of pathogenic myco- and microflora, as well as harmful entomofauna on European Ash. It is shown that the most common and harmful diseaseis tuberculosis (its causal agent - bacteria Pseudomonas syringae pv. savastanoi (Smith 1908), which affects trunks, branches, twigs and buds of European Ash. It describes a number of pathogens and representatives mikofitozov malicious entomofauna that by virtue of its activities significantly weaken the growth, development and underestimate the qualitative characteristics of wood European Ash.

Key words: pathogenic microflora, infectious diseases, harmful entomofauna, symptoms, ash generative organs, ash tuberculosis, pathogenesis, disease prevalence, disease severity.
