Vicente, Cláudia; Nascimento, Francisco; Espada, Margarida; Barbosa, Pedro; Hasegawa, K; Correia, A; Mota, ManuelBacterial communities associated with the Bursaphelenchus xylophilus (pine wood nematode, PWN) are suggested to play a role in pine wilt disease (PWD) development. However, it’s not clear where the PWN acquires these communities. In this sense, it is possible that bacterial communities colonizing Monochamus spp. may affect the bacterial communities associated with the PWN. In this work, we present the character...

Alves, M; Pereira, A; Matos, P; Henriques, J; Vicente, Cláudia; Aikawa, T; Hasegawa, K; Nascimento, Francisco; Mota, Manuel; Correia, A; Henriques, IMonochamus beetles are the dispersing vectors of the nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, the causative agent of pine wilt disease (PWD). PWD inflicts significant damages in Eurasian pine forests. Symbiotic microorganisms have a large influence in insect survival. The aim of this study was to characterize the bacterial community associated to PWD vectors in Europe and East Asia using a culture-independent appro...
