Analysis of the Mathematical Model for the Spread of Pine Wilt Disease
This paper formulates and analyzes a pine wilt disease model. Mathematical analyses of the model with regard to invariance of nonnegativity, boundedness of the solutions, existence of nonnegative equilibria, permanence, and global stability are presented.

Bio-inspired Analytical Heuristics to Study Pine Wilt Disease Model [PDF]
AbstractThis paper portrays the dynamics of pine wilt disease. The specific formula for reproduction number is accomplished. Global behavior is completely demonstrated on the basis of the basic reproduction number $${{\boldsymbol{R}}}_{{\boldsymbol{o}}}$$Ro.
