Bacterial Diversity and Community Structure in the Pine Wood Nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus and B. mucronatus with Different Virulence by High-Throughput Sequencing of the 16S rDNA. [PDF]
Bursaphelenchus xylophilus is the pathogen of pine wilt disease. Bursaphelenchus mucronatus is similar to B. xylophilus in morphology. Both species share a common niche, but they are quite different in pathogenicity.

Pine Wood Nematode,Bursaphelenchus xylophilus [PDF]
After devastating vast areas of pine forests in Asian countries, the pine wilt disease spread into European forests in 1999 and is causing worldwide concern. This disease involves very complicated interactions between a pathogenic nematode, its vector beetle, host pine species, and fungi in dead hosts.

Morpho-biometrical studies were conducted on 12 Bursaphelenchus xylophilus isolates collected from maritime pine, Pinus pinaster, in Portugal. The studies were carried out on 20 females and 20 males from each isolate. A wide variation in the female tails,

Genetic characteristics of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus third-stage dispersal juveniles
The third-stage dispersal juvenile (DJ3) of pinewood nematode (PWN) is highly associated with low-temperature survival and spread of the nematode. Oil-Red-O staining showed that its lipid content was significantly higher compared with other PWN stages ...

Nematodes in the Pine Forests of Northern and Central Greece
In the context of plants or plant products protection by harmful organisms, measures have been taken by EU countries in order to prevent their introduction and establishment into the EU, and also limit their expansion in case they do enter.

Feeding Dimorphism in a Mycophagous Nematode, Bursaphelenchus sinensis [PDF]
AbstractPhenotypic plasticity has been widely reported in animals and can drive investment in new biological characters that engender ecological adaptability. The nematode family Diplogastridae, especially Pristionchus pacificus with its dramatic stomatal (feeding) dimorphism, has become an important model system to analyze the evolutionary and ...

A “monumental” centennial Pinus pinea L. tree of public interest with severe wilting symptoms was felled in Coimbra, Portugal. A survey was carried out to detect Aphelenchoididae nematodes (including Bursaphelenchus spp.) in the tree tissues.

Pine wood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, is a causal organism to induce pine wilt disease (PWD) in many varieties of pine trees. PWD was first introduced to Korea in 1988 but, the damage has been dramatically increased since 2000. Recently PWD is newly reported in Korean pine tree (Pinus koraien‐sis) and is considered one of the most ...

Pinus‐derived membrane vesicles disrupt pathogenic metabolism in fungi
Needle‐derived vesicles from pine trees impair fungal metabolism and growth, offering a sustainable strategy to control pine pitch canker disease. Abstract Much of what we know about the biological impacts of vesicles (MVs) is derived from Arabidopsis thaliana.

Larval diapause intensity of Monochamus alternatus follows a declining curve, beginning with an initial refractory phase and reaching termination after approximately 110 days of chilling at 9°C. Residual inhibitory state strongly influenced post‐chilling development; additional chilling shortened the diapause period more at 18°C than at warmer ...
