Abstract: The monitoring of presence of European mistletoe (Viscum album) was carried out between the years 2011 to 2013 in winter period in castle park in Lednice. The most common host taxa belong to genera Acer, Tilia, Crataegus, Juglans and Robinia. For statistical evaluation of collected data we used linear and exponential regression models. Our results confirmed that the mistletoe bush number was higher with increased tree height, diameter at breast height, crown volume and crown projection. In some cases (e.g. Tilia cordata or Tilia platyphyllos) the regression analysis showed higher relationship (ca. 25– 35 %) between the mistletoe number per tree and diameter at breast height and crown volume. There is big difference among the hosts within similar dendrometric quantities, consequently, some host taxa are more sensitive for infection. The strongest relationship was observed in case of Juglans nigra (max. 45 %), which probably will be the most endangered host in the whole park.

Keywords: Viscum album, host woody species, mistletoe infection, regression analysis
