We have a very old, huge fruitless mulberry here in the Dallas area. Just in the past month it's started yellowing and dropping it's leaves. Usually there's a problem with bagworms. I don't know what's wrong with it to try and remedy the problem. Is it a common disease, bacteria, fungus, or is it some sort of insects? Can any one give me ideas where to start? Thanks.

I do not know enough to diagnose your tree's problem. However, I found the following site that mentions fruitless mulberry as being susceptible to the fungus disease mentioned, which is endemic to the Texas area. Hopefully it is not this disease.
