Nematicidal bacteria associated to pinewood nematode produce extracellular proteases. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Bacteria associated with the nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, a pathogen of trees and the causal agent of pine wilt disease (PWD) may play a role in the disease.

Interaction Between Pinus Species and Foliar Fungal Pathogens: Similar Symptoms, Contrasting Physiology

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Lecanosticta acicola and Dothistroma septosporum trigger similar symptoms; host responses diverge sharply: Pinus pinea mounts robust defences, P. pinaster remains vulnerable, and P. radiata sustains growth. These contrasting strategies highlight species‐specific resilience and provide key insights for sustainable forest protection.

Assessments of iodoindoles and abamectin as inducers of methuosis in pinewood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Bursaphelenchus xylophilus is a quarantined migratory endoparasite known to cause severe economic losses in pine forest ecosystems. The study presents the nematicidal effects of halogenated indoles on B. xylophilus and their action mechanisms.

A Detection Method of Pine Wilt Disease Based on Improved YOLOv11 With UAV Remote Sensing Images

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
The proposed YOLOv11‐OC model enhances detection performance in PWD‐infected trees in two main ways. On one hand, the omni‐dimensional dynamic convolution (ODConv) module improves the C3K2 by using a multi‐dimensional attention mechanism to adaptively adjust the convolution kernel weights, thereby enhancing the model's ability to extract features from ...

Ultrastructural Description of Amphid Neurons in the Pine Wood Nematode Indicates Concurrent Evolution of the Stylet and Specific Neurons

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 533, Issue 11, November 2025.
Nematodes possess simple nervous systems yet show broad ecological diversity. In the fungal‐feeding plant‐parasitic nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, we identified type V neurons in the amphid. These neurons, likely associated with the stylet, have trifurcated cilia and may have a potential mechanosensory role in triggering stylet‐thrusting behavior

Comparative analysis of complete mitochondrial genome sequences confirms independent origins of plant-parasitic nematodes

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2013
Background The nematode infraorder Tylenchomorpha (Class Chromadorea) includes plant parasites that are of agricultural and economic importance, as well as insect-associates and fungal feeding species.

Fungal Community Assembly in Standing Deadwood: Stochastic vs. Deterministic Processes Across Decay Stages*

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2025.
Pinus massoniana, a key conifer in southern China, often succumbs to pests and strong winds, leaving abundant standing deadwood. However, under local field conditions, the mechanism of fungal community assembly within this deadwood remains poorly investigated.

Characteristics and function of a novel cystatin gene in the pine wood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus

open access: yesBiology Open, 2019
Bursaphelenchus xylophilus is the pathogen that causes pine wilt disease (PWD). The disease has caused significant economic losses and damage to forests. However, the pathogenic mechanism of B. xylophilus remains unclear.

The Simultaneous Role of Plant Growth Promoting Bacteria (PGPB) in Biological Control and Improving the Production of Forest Resources

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 55, Issue 5, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Plant pests and fungal diseases cause tremendous damage to forest resources worldwide, leading to increasing with increasing leading economic losses due to the impact of climate change such as increased prevalence and proliferation of invasive species.
