Q1- Does each region have to breed its own resistant chestnuts or will the
results of the VA project be useful from Maine to Wisconsin? What are the
theories on this? Are the Parent lines from many different regions already? I am
asking due to the semi-hardiness of Chinese to Zone 5 and colder, depending on
the seedling and the native range of Chestnut. What would you define as the
native range of Amer. Chestnut? I have read different information in different
sources.

There's a Massachusetts chapter using local genetic material
http://www.acf.org/ChapterNews_ma.htm
(Or, at least, they are trying their best to cross whatever they are growing with surviving local trees.) I bet there are other chapters, too.

p.s. I'm hoping to plant a chestnut as a shade tree one of these days. . .
