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

Nature 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

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

PLoS 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.

On the track of Bursaphelenchus pinophilus Brzeski and Baujard, 1997 (Nematoda: Aphelenchoididae) in Portugal [PDF]

, 2013
This is the first report and characterization of Bursaphelenchus pinophilus in Portugal. This species was isolated from a young dying Pinus pinaster tree located in Valverde, in the Alentejo region.

Bursaphelenchus xylophilus and B. mucronatus secretomes: a comparative proteomic analysis [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2016
AbstractThe pinewood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, recognized as a worldwide major forest pest, is a migratory endoparasitic nematode with capacity to feed on pine tissues and also on fungi colonizing the trees. Bursaphelenchus mucronatus, the closest related species, differs from B.

The role of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus associated bacteria in pine wilt disease [PDF]

, 2012
Pine wilt disease (PWD) is a complex disease integrating three major factors: the causal agent, the pinewood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus; the insect-vector Monochamus spp.; and the host pine tree, Pinus sp.

Report on the survey for Bursaphelenchus xylophilus and the occurrence of other Bursaphelenchus species in Hungarian coniferous forests. [PDF]

, 2013
An ongoing official survey to detect the pine wood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, a quarantine pest, started in 2003 in coniferous forests in Hungary. Based on the results of the study from 2003–11, B.

Pre‐Crop Choice Shapes Nematode‐Attached Bacterial Communities Associated With Reduced Pratylenchus penetrans Invasion of Barley Roots

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2025.
Plant species vary in how they shape nematode‐suppressive soil microbiomes, and these legacies influence the subsequent crop. Suppressive microbiomes contain specific bacterial taxa that attach to the nematode cuticle, leading to reduced nematode invasion into the root system of the host.

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

BMC 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.
