Manuel Mota,Helen Braasch,Maria Antonia Bravo,Ana Catarina Penas,Wolfgang Burgermeister,Kai Metge,Edmundo Sousa +6 more
TL;DR: Morphological observations, including shape of spicules, bursa, vulva, female tail end and stylet as well as morphometrics, were in accordance with the species description, and B. xylophilus is reported for the first time in Europe.
Journal Article
ITS-RFLP patterns for differentiation of 26 Bursaphelenchus species (Nematoda: Parasitaphelenchidae) and observations on their distribution
TL;DR: The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of ribosomal DNA have become a valuable tool for differentiation of Bursaphelenchus species, such as B. xylophilus.
Journal ArticleDOI
ITS-RFLP analysis, an efficient tool for differentiation of Bursaphelenchus species
TL;DR: Comparison of profiles from isolates of many different origins has provided new information on intraspecific types or genetically distinct provenances of several Bursaphelenchus species.
Identification of Bursaphelenchus species (Nematoda, Aphelenchoididae) on the basis of amplified ribosomal DNA (ITS-RFLP)
TL;DR: The technique of restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of the amplified internal transcribed spacer region of 1i bosomal DNA (ITS-RFLP) was established for interspecific classification of Bursaphelenchus isolates and differentiation of the two forms of B. mucronatus was possible which had been detected in previous molecular genetical investigations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence of Bursaphelenchus species in declining Pinus sylvestris in a dry Alpine valley in Switzerland
TL;DR: The incidence of Bursaphelenchus species in declining Pinus sylvestris stands in the Swiss Alps is determined and could be a contributing factor in the observed pine decline in Valais.
