Нематоды Bursaphelenchus Mucronatus И Связанные С Ними Results of the Pine Wilt Disease Surveys in Russia O.A.Kulinich (1), E.N.Arbuzova (1), N.I.Kozyreva (2), E.S.Mazurin(1) 1) All-Russian Plant Quarantine Center, Bykovo, Moscow oblast, Russia, email: [email protected]; 2)The Center of Parasitology, Institute of Ecology and Evolution of the Russian Academy of Sciences The wood reserve in Russia (m3 / hectare) If the PWN were introduced in Russia, and became widespread there, it is estimated that annual costs could range from 1.3 to 3.7 billion US dollars a year. Similar damage will also be true for Europe in the case of PWN spread and lack of control. (Soliman et al., 2012) Surveys of conifer forests in Russia for the pine wood nematode B. xylophilus, were started early in the 1990s In one case the nematodes were isolated from dead Korean pine plantations. The number of the nematodes in the wood was 20,000 individuals per g of wood (Kulinich et al., 1994). Subsequent pathogenicity tests with this isolate conducted in a greenhouse showed that nematode-inoculated 5-year- old Pinus koraiensis and … 100 100 80 60 Inoculated 40 seedlings 33 40 Control %, died trees died %, 13 20 0 0 0 Pinus Pinus Pinus koraiensis sylvestris densiflora …larch, Larix olgensis, died after the inoculation. 100 100 80 Inoculated 60 seedlings 40 Control %, died trees 20 0 0 0 0 Larix olgensis Larix dahurica Some other conifer species were resistant to the nematode (Eroshenko & Kruglik, 1998). 100 100 100 100 80 60 Inoculated seedlings 40 Control %, died trees 20 0 0 0 0 Abies Abies Picea nefrolepis holophylla ajanensis Pest Risk Analysis There are large areas within Russia where the mean July temperature exceeds 20 C. Also, in Russia susceptible host plants and species of longhorn beetles are present.

B. xylophilus species has not been found in Russia, but the closely related species B.mucronatus was detected. The frequency of B. mucronatus occurrence was 11.5% in 2010 and 5.6% in 2011. Twenty four isolates of the wood-inhabiting nematode B.mucronatus from 11 Russian regions were extracted and propagated in vitro. Main goal What factors affect the pathogenicity of B.xylophilus and B. mucronatus and can B.mucronatus populations induce pine wilt disease, such as the one caused by B. xylophilus? The most favourable factors influencing B.xylophilus pathogenicity include: biological characters of the nematode species, and host plant and climate. Resent research (2000-2010) in China and South Korea showed that the Pine Wilt Disease of conifers are induced by complex of pathogenic bacteria and the PWN that the bacteria carries (Zhao et al., 2009; Kwon et al., 2010; Wu et al. 2013 and others).

Results of capillary electrophoresis of the 16S rRNA gene of the bacteria. Twenty species of bacteria belonging to nine families and 9 genera were isolated from the nematodes and identified The bacteria, most frequently encountered, belonged to the genus Pseudomonas (44%). Five species of the genus Pseudomonas were identified Associated bacteria were studied in the dauerlarva stage of B. mucronatus nematodes isolated from the longhorn beetle Monochamus urussovi Fisch. Here, Pseudomonas fluorescens species were extracted from this larval stage of B. mucronatus, as well. Symbiotic bacteria associated with PWN have been studied in recent years in China, Korea, and Portugal. However, different researchers extracted different species of pathogenic bacteria which they believe are responsible for the PWD development. Bacillus spp. Burkholderia Pseudomonas arboris fluorescens Bacteria associated with Bursaphelenchus xylophilus nematodes Zhao B., Lin F. Mutualistic Experiments have symbiosis between shown a high Bursaphelenchus xylophilus and bacteria of the genus degree of Pseudomonas.

Suppression arboris of pine wilt disease by an antibacterial agent, oxolinic acid // Pest Manag. Sci. 2010, 66, 6. P. 634-639. Conclusion Thus, Russian B. mucronatus isolates carry bacteria. Perhaps, some populations of this species can vector pathogenic bacteria (for example, Pseudomonas fluorescens) and sometime induce PWD. It’s assumed that B. mucronatus nematodes and the symbiotic bacterium P. fluorescens can cause death of some Russian pine forests in areas where the mean air temperature in summer months exceeds 250C. Many people remember the hot summer of 2010. The average monthly temperature in the Centre of European Russia in 2010 was 26.4 ° C in July and 25.5 ° C in August. Following that hot year many dead stands of Pinus sylvestris forests were found. Сравнительные графики средней температуры воздуха на территории Воронежской области за 2010 г.

    Delimiting of biological invasions – an overview of strategies and tools with pine wood nematode as a case study • This report presents general Pros and Cons of different strategies and survey tools for delimiting surveys of invasive species. • If pine wood nematode was to establish in Sweden, it is most likely that it would have time to spread over a considerable area before it would be detected. • The strategy for delimiting survey of pine wood nematode in Sweden should be to survey sequential zones around the detection point until there are no more records of the species. Rapport 2020:17 Delimiting of biological invasions – an overview of strategies and tools with pine wood nematode as a case study The Swedish Board of Agriculture is as the Swedish Plant Health Authority continuously developing its capability for handling detection of plant pests and pathogens that are new for the country and may cause severe damages if established. One example of such a pest is pine wood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus that if established may have significant impact on Swedish pine forests and trade of wood products. The binding requirements for control of an outbreak of pine wood nematode in the EU are specified in Commission Implementing Decision 2012/535/EU. This Decision includes requirements for all EU Member States to carry out surveys in order to detect any occurrence of pine wood nematode as early as possible after an introduction and in case of an outbreak to delimit the geographical area, which must be subject to official measures. One crucial aspect in a contingency plan for pine wood nematode and other quarantine pests, is how to delimit the infested area.

  • A Review of the European Species of Monochamus Dejean, 1821 (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae) – with a Description of the Genitalia Characters
    © Norwegian Journal of Entomology. 25 June 2013 A review of the European species of Monochamus Dejean, 1821 (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae) – with a description of the genitalia characters HENRIK WALLIN, MARTIN SCHROEDER & TORSTEIN KVAMME Wallin, H., Schroeder, M. & Kvamme, T. 2013. A review of the European species of Monochamus Dejean, 1821 (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae) – with a description of the genitalia characters. Norwegian Journal of Entomology 60, 11–38. The male and female genitalia characters of the European species of Monochamus Dejean, 1821, are described and compared in detail for the first time. The sclerites inside the median phallomer (internal sac) of M. sutor (Linnaeus, 1758) and M. galloprovincialis (Olivier, 1795) differ from those of all other examined species, and appear to be the best characters to separate M. sutor from M. galloprovincialis. There are no differences between the male or female genitalia characters of M. sartor (Fabricius, 1787) and M. urussovi (Fischer von Waldheim, 1805). Thus, M. urussovi is regarded as a subspecies of M. sartor: M. sartor urussovi nov. stat. The present results also support that the previously considered subspecies M. galloprovincialis pistor (Germar, 1818) is a true junior synonym of M. galloprovincialis galloprovincialis. No sclerites occur inside the internal sac of M. saltuarius (Gebler, 1830). The internal sac of M. sartor sartor (Fabricius, 1787), M. sartor urussovi and M. impluviatus impluviatus (Motschulsky, 1859) are distinctly different from the other European species of Monochamus: there is an elongated tube (terminal segment) inside the internal sac containing two very small and weakly sclerotized plates in M. sartor sartor and M. sartor urussovi and a larger sclerite in M.

In the past decade, multiple outbreaks of previously unknown diseases of the small-leaved elm have been registered. In our study, by the molecular-genetic analysis it was found that the pathogens responsible for the outbreaks are microfungi belonging to the genus Fusarium – F. solani and F. oxysporum. The nucleotide sequences (ITS regions) isolated from the diseased trees showed very high similarity with the GenBank control numbers EU625403.1 and FJ478128.1 (100.0 and 99.0 % respectively). Oncoming research will focus on the search of natural microbial antagonists of the discovered phytopathogens.

Chestnut blight was discovered in the United States in 1904. Since then, it has virtually destroyed the chestnut population, which once occupied 25 percent of the eastern forest. In the 1860's, the gypsy moth was accidentally released in Massachusetts. Since then, it has become established in 16 states, and for most of the past 15 years, has defoliated a million acres of hardwood trees each year. Kudzu was introduced into the United States in 1876, and later distributed to many states in an effort to control agricultural erosion. It did not control erosion; rather, it became one of the most serious pest plants in the southeast, where it now covers seven million acres.
