Chromosome-level genome assembly of the Japanese sawyer beetle Monochamus alternatus

Scientific Data
The Japanese sawyer beetle Monochamus alternatus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) is a pest in pine forests and acts as a vector for the pine wood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, which causes the pine wilt disease. We assembled a high-quality genome of M.

Third Generation Genome Sequencing Reveals That Endobacteria in Nematophagous Fungi Esteya vermicola Contain Multiple Genes Encoding for Nematicidal Proteins

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Esteya vermicola is the first recorded endoparasitic nematophagous fungus with high infectivity capacity, attacking the pinewood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus which causes pine wilt disease. Endosymbionts are found in the cytoplasm of E.

Pinus pinea: a natural barrier for the insect vector of the pine wood nematode?

Annals of Forest Science, 2022
Key message In mixed stands of Pinus pinaster and Pinus pinea , fewer insect vectors of the pinewood nematode (PWN) were captured than in pure P. pinaster stands.

Infection Models for Pine Wilt Disease on the Basis of Vector Behaviors

Population Ecology, Volume 68, Issue 1, January 2026.
Infection models for pine wilt disease without vector density were built to estimate the transmission coefficient of the pathogenic nematode. The models successfully simulated the annual change in the density of infected trees for four pine stands. ABSTRACT Pine wilt disease is caused by the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner et ...

A New Eudesmane Sesquiterpene Glucoside from Liriope muscari Fibrous Roots

Molecules, 2011
The screening of several Chinese medicinal herbs for nematocidal properties showed that the ethanol extract of Liriope muscari fibrous roots possessed significant nematocidal activity against the pine wood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus).

A male-produced aggregation-sex pheromone of the beetle Arhopalus rusticus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae, Spondylinae) may be useful in managing this invasive species. [PDF]

, 2019
The longhorned beetle Arhopalus rusticus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae, Spondylinae) is a common species in conifer forests of the Northern Hemisphere, but with global trade, it has invaded and become established in New Zealand, Australia, and South America.

he genome and genetics of a high oxidative stress tolerant Serratia sp. LCN16 isolated from the plant parasitic nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Pine wilt disease (PWD) is a worldwide threat to pine forests, and is caused by the pine wood nematode (PWN) Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. Bacteria are known to be associated with PWN and may have an important role in PWD. Serratia sp. LCN16 is

Predation vs. Parasitism: A Case Study of Indigenous Co‐Stewardship and Science Co‐Production to Measure Temporal Shifts in Moose Mortality on Ancestral Lands of the Grand Portage Ojibwe

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study, led by the Grand Portage Band of Lake Superior Chippewa, tracks survival and examines causes of adult moose mortality from 2010 to 2022 on the Grand Portage Indian Reservation and in Voyageurs National Park. Using a Bayesian framework, we integrated multiple contributing factors to accurately estimate cause‐specific mortality probabilities ...
