Thus far, only trees and shrubs in the family Lauraceae (Laurel family) are known to be affected by laurel wilt. Redbay (Persea borbonia) appears to be the most widely affected species. Other species that have developed the disease in the field include sassafras (Sassafras albidum), pondberry (Lindera melissifolia), pondspice (Litsea aestivalis), and avocado (Persea americana).
