Path‐finding algorithm as a dispersal assessment method for invasive species with human‐vectored long‐distance dispersal event

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 28, Issue 6, Page 1214-1226, June 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim An assessment method that can precisely represent human‐vectored long‐distance dispersals (HVLDD) is currently in need for the effective management of invasive species. Here, we focussed on HVLDD happening along roads and proposed a path‐finding algorithm as a more precise dispersal assessment tool than the most widely used Euclidean ...

The role of bacteria in pine wilt disease: insights from microbiome analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Pine Wilt Disease (PWD) has a significant impact on Eurasia pine forests. The microbiome of the nematode (the primary cause of the disease), its insect vector, and the host tree may be relevant for the disease mechanism.

Life-history strategies and virulence in the pinewood nematode

open access: yesPhysiological and Molecular Plant Pathology, 2022
Abstract We assessed variation and covariation in life history traits of the forest pathogen Bursaphelenchus xylophilus from a native population in North America. We tested for relationships between life history traits and virulence. There was more than two-fold variation among isolates from the same forest in their population growth rates when ...

Virulence Biomarkers of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus: A Proteomic Approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The pinewood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, one of the most serious forest pests worldwide, is considered the causal agent of the pine wilt disease (PWD). The main host species belong to the genus Pinus, and a variation in the susceptibility

The pine wood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, in Portugal: possible introductions and spread routes of a serious biological invasion revealed by molecular methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The pine wood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, the causal agent of pine wilt disease (PWD), is a major world-wide pathogen and pest of pine, with impacts on forest health, natural ecosystem stability and international trade.

Bioassays Against Pinewood Nematode: Assessment of a Suitable Dilution Agent and Screening for Bioactive Essential Oils

open access: yesMolecules, 2012
Acetone was investigated and found to be an appropriate alternative to Triton X-100 as a solvent of essential oils in bioassays aimed to investigate their effects on pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) mortality.

Pine wilt disease: detection of the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) as a tool for a pine breeding programme [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The pinewood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, is a serious quarantine pest first detected in Portugal and Europe in 1999. It is the causal agent of pine wilt disease (PWD).

Diversity of Bacteria Associated with Bursaphelenchus xylophilus and Other Nematodes Isolated from Pinus pinaster Trees with Pine Wilt Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The pinewood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, has been thought to be the only causal agent of pine wilt disease (PWD), however, since bacteria have been suggested to play a role in PWD, it is important to know the diversity of the microbial ...

Species of Bursaphelenchus Fuchs, 1937 (Nematoda: Parasitaphelenchidae) and other nematode genera associated with insects from Pinus pinaster in Portugal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Insects associated with maritime pine, Pinus pinaster, in Portugal were collected and screened for the presence of Bursaphelenchus species. Nematodes were identified using Internal Transcribed Spacers-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (ITS-RFLP ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of Monochamus alternatus alternatus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
Monochamus alternatus alternatus is the major vector of pinewood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, in Asia. The length of the complete mitochondria genome of M. alternatus alternatus was 15,880 bp with 21% GC content, including 39.7% A, 12.3% C, 8.7%
