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

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.

Evidences for an opportunistic and endophytic lifestyle of the Bursaphelenchus xylophilus -associated bacteria Serratia marcescens PWN146 isolated from wilting Pinus pinaster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Pine wilt disease (PWD) results from the interaction of three elements: the pathogenic nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus; the insect-vector, Monochamus sp.; and the host tree, mostly Pinus species. Bacteria isolated from B.

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.
