TLDR
Critical assessments of currently available control tactics, a summary of on-going research and an account of the prospects for integrated pest management of the epidemic pine wilt disease are given.Abstract:
A review is given of historical aspects of the epidemic pine wilt disease and the associated control activities in Japan. Critical assessments of currently available control tactics, a summary of on-going research and an account of the prospects for integrated pest management of the disease are given. Research on the most appropriate application of direct control tactics are emphasized in this review, in addition to the necessity for long-term, intensive work on the environmental impact of chemicals.read more

Pest risk analysis (PRA) for the territories of the European Union (as PRA area) on Bursaphelenchus xylophilus and its vectors in the genus Monochamus.
TL;DR: The conclusion of the PRA, based on EPPO PRA guideline no. 1, is that these pests present a serious risk to European coniferous forests.

Pine wilt disease caused by the pine wood nematode: the induced resistance of pine trees by the avirulent isolates of nematode
TL;DR: The induced resistance of pine trees by avirulent B. xylophilus should be one of the candidate biological control methods against pine wilt disease and provides an experimental system to clarify physiological interactions between the nematodes and pine trees.

An operative kairomonal lure for managing pine sawyer beetle Monochamus galloprovincialis (Coleoptera: Cerymbycidae)
TL;DR: Monochamus galloprovincialis Olivier is a vector of the pine wood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, causing the destructive pine wilt disease and an effective lure for monitoring and/or mass‐trapping would be of great interest in the management of this pine sawyer.

Experiences with Bursaphelenchus xylophilus in Finland1
TL;DR: In surveys B. xylophilus has not been found in roundwood or in chips imported from European countries into Finland, either in paper mills handling North American wood or in Finnish pine trees around harbours.

The pine wood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus (Steiner and Buhrer) Nickle (= B. lignicolus Mamiya and Kiyohara): an assessment of the current position
N. J. Fielding,H. F. Evans +1 more
TL;DR: Pest risk assessments have been carried out to determine the risks to Europe; it is concluded that the nematode would undoubtedly survive in Europe but that tree mortality is likely only in the warmer southern countries.

Pathology of the Pine Wilt Disease Caused by Bursaphelenchus xylophilus
TL;DR: The pine wilt caused by the nematode, is the most serious disease of forest trees in Japan and has spread to remote areas by the importation of pine logs infested with the pine wood nematodes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low cost in vitro mass production of Neoaplectana and Heterorhabditis species (Nematoda) for field control of insect pests.
TL;DR: Simple new methods are described for rearing species of Neoaplectana and Heterorhabditis monoxenically and cheaply in large quantities for use in biological control and lends itself to industrial development.

Use of the nematode deladenus siridicola in the biological control of sirex noctilio in australia
R.A. Bedding,Raymond J. Akhurst +1 more
TL;DR: This tylenchid nematode causes sterility in female Sirex noctilio F., a serious pest of pine trees in southeastern Australia; it has been liberated over many of the areas affected by SireX using the simple but highly effective techniques described.

Field testing of the insect parasitic nematode, Neoaplectana bibionis [ Nematoda: Steinernematidae ] against currant borer moth, Synanthedon tipuliformis [ Lep.: Sesiidae ] in blackcurrants
L. A. Miller,R. A. Bedding +1 more
TL;DR: The cost of nematode application may be comparable to that of insecticides without any of the associated problems and some nematodes migrated to new tunnels resulting in an increase in parasitization with time.
