Systematic review of modelling approaches assessing eradication and containment measures for the pinewood nematode (PWN) Bursaphelenchus xylophilus

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract This Scientific Opinion reviews existing models that assess eradication and containment strategies of the pinewood nematode (PWN) Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. The objective was to characterise modelling approaches, validation data and methods used to investigate possible interventions.

Infestation of pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) seedlings with the pinewood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner and Buhrer (Nickle) through wood sawdust

open access: yesAnnals of Forest Science, 2023
Key message There are various pathways for infesting pine trees with the pinewood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. As a result of the experiment, we determined that sawdust infested with the nematode can pose a phytosanitary risk.

The Potential of Esteya spp. for the Biocontrol of the Pinewood Nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
The pinewood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, is the causal agent of pine wilt disease (PWD) and a quarantine organism in many countries.

A conceptual model for the diapause intensity curve and termination in overwintering Japanese pine sawyer larvae, Monochamus alternatus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae)

open access: yesPhysiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 226-236, June 2026.
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 ...

Using Bursaphelenchus mucronatus to demonstrate the potential nematicidal effect of Beauveria bassiana on pine wood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) under in vivo conditions

open access: yesAnnals of Forest Science
Key message This study demonstrates the potential of Beauveria bassiana (Bals.—Criv.) Vuill. to control Bursaphelenchus mucronatus (Mamiya and Enda), which is close to Bursaphelenchus xylophilus (Steiner and Buhrer) Nickle but is a non-quarantine ...

Ascarosides coordinate the dispersal of a plant-parasitic nematode with the metamorphosis of its vector beetle

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Many species of nematodes use pheromones called ascarosides to coordinate their behaviour and development. Here, Zhao et al. demonstrate that the beetle vector of the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) also uses and responds to ascarosides in

Characterization of bacteria associated with pinewood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Pine Wilt Disease (PWD) is a complex disease integrating three major agents: the pathogenic agent, the pinewood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus; the insect-vector Monochamus spp.; and the host pine tree, Pinus sp.

The history of expansion of the genus Bursaphelenchus (Nematoda: Aphelenchida: Parasitaphelenchidae) [PDF]

open access: yesDoklady Biological Sciences, 2008
97 Because of globalization and removal of geographical barriers, frequent biological invasions of introduced species become an urgent environmental problem. According to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), precise identification of dangerous aggressive species at the early stages of their invasion to new regions is the most important ...

Standardized Protocols for Soil Fauna Extraction and a Call for Cross‐Lab Implementation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We present harmonized methodologies, assembled by an international group of experts, for extracting soil‐ and litter‐inhabiting nematodes, enchytraeids, microarthropods, and larger invertebrates. The protocols are illustrated with images and videos, and include advice for overcoming the most frequent issues (’expert tips’) for increasing extraction ...

Requirement of group I lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase for turnover of chitinous cuticle during moulting in two forest pest beetles, Monochamus alternatus and Psacothea hilaris

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 115-125, April 2026.
Group I LPMO15‐1 cDNAs from two economically important forest insect pests, M. alternatus and P. hilaris, were cloned. MaLPMO15‐1 and PhLPMO15‐1 show a similar pattern of expression during late stages of development. RNAi for LPMO15‐1 causes failure of adult eclosion in both M. alternatus and P. hilaris.
