Temperature-mediated Behavioral Relationships in Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, B. mucronatus, and Their Hybrids.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The influence of temperature on reproduction and movement was examined for seven geographic isolates of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, three of B. mucronatus, and two of their interspecific hybrids. All nematode isolates tended to be more active and fecund the higher the temperature, with the isolates of B. xylophilus reaching a reproductive peak at higher temperatures than isolates of B. mucronatus. Most isolates of B. xylophilus and B. mucronatus did not produce significantly more progeny at higher male-to-female ratios. The interspecific hybrids appear to possess temperature-related characteristics of either B. xylophilus or both of the parents.

Pinewood nematode species complex: interbreeding potential and chromosome number.
Interbreeding potential, chromosome number, and host range were compared among several isolates and species of Bursaphelenchus from diverse geographic areas. Some isolates from North America, Japan, and France had a wide-ranging interbreeding potential, whereas others were restricted in their potential to hybridize with other isolates. Although interbreeding occurred in the laboratory between s...

To evaluate the mechanisms of pathogenicity and non-pathogenicity of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus and B. mucronatus isolated in South Korea, we used 4-year-old P. thunbergii seedlings and 20-cm long one-year-old stem cuttings of 5-year-old Pinus thunbergii, and studied distributions and multiplications of pine wood nematodes after inoculation. The distributions of B. xylophilus in the 20-cm pine ...

Bursaphelenchus xylophilus is the pathogen of pine wilt disease. Bursaphelenchus mucronatus is similar to B. xylophilus in morphology. Both species share a common niche, but they are quite different in pathogenicity. Presently, the role of bacteria in pine wilt disease development has been widely speculated. The diversity of bacteria associated with B. xylophilus and B. mucronatus with differen...

The pinewood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, is one of the greatest threats to coniferous forests worldwide, causing severe ecological damage and economic loss. The biology of B. xylophilus is similar to that of its closest relative, B. mucronatus, as both species share food resources and insect vectors, and have very similar morphological characteristics, although little pathogenicity to...

The pinewood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, recognized as a worldwide major forest pest, is a migratory endoparasitic nematode with capacity to feed on pine tissues and also on fungi colonizing the trees. Bursaphelenchus mucronatus, the closest related species, differs from B. xylophilus on its pathogenicity, making this nematode a good candidate for comparative analyses. Secretome profi...
