Mycobiome of Pinus pinaster trees naturally infected by the pinewood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. [PDF]

Sci Rep
Fungi are important biological elements in the Pine wilt disease (PWD) complex. In the late stages of the disease, the pinewood nematode (PWN) Bursaphelenchus xylophilus feeds on the fungal flora available in the pine tree for survival and multiplication.

Ultrasonic phytosanitation of pinewood nematode infected wood [PDF]

Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2016
Pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) mortality was investigated after ultrasonic treatment at 20 and 40 kHz frequency. Experiments were conducted with infected small wood specimens that were ultrasonically treated for 1, 3, 5 and 7 hours and ...

A near-complete genome assembly of Monochamus alternatus a major vector beetle of pinewood nematode. [PDF]

Sci Data
The Japanese sawyer beetle, Monochamus alternatus, is not only one of the most important wood boring pest itself, but also a major vector of the invasive pinewood nematode (PWN), which is the causal agent of the devastative pine wilt disease (PWD) and ...

Hypoxia-induced tracheal elasticity in vector beetle facilitates the loading of pinewood nematode. [PDF]

Elife, 2023
Many pathogens rely on their insect vectors for transmission. Such pathogens are under selection to improve vector competence for their transmission by employing various tissue or cellular responses of vectors.

Differential Impact of the Pinewood Nematode on Pinus Species Under Drought Conditions. [PDF]

Front Plant Sci, 2022
The pinewood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, responsible for the pine wilt disease (PWD), is a major threat to pine forests worldwide. Since forest mortality due to PWN might be exacerbated by climate, the concerns regarding PWD in the ...

Microhabitat Governs the Microbiota of the Pinewood Nematode and Its Vector Beetle: Implication for the Prevalence of Pine Wilt Disease. [PDF]

Microbiol Spectr, 2022
Our understanding of animal microbiota acquisition and dispersal-mediated variation has rapidly increased. In this study, using the model of host pine-pinewood nematode-vector beetle (Monochamus sp.) complex, we disentangled the routes of microbial ...

Pinewood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, found in packing case wood. [PDF]

Silva Fennica, 1991
Living third dispersal stage juveniles of pinewood nematode, , were found infesting pine boards in Finland. The boards had been used as building material in a packing case to hold imported machinery.
