The Efficiency of RNA Interference in Bursaphelenchus xylophilus
Molecules and Cells, 2008 RNA interference (RNAi) was performed on several essential genes in the pinewood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, which causes pine wilt disease. Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) was delivered to larvae or adult worms by soaking, electroporation, or microinjection.

First Report of Matricidal Hatching in Bursaphelenchus xylophilus
Journal of Nematology, 2017 Abstract The reproductive strategy of the pinewood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, is sexual amphimictic and oviparous. The incidence of intrauterine egg development and hatching in plant-parasitic nematodes is not a very common phenomenon. During the process of maintaining and breeding a B.
