Abstract:

10-year-old Black Pines were inoculated with aseptic pine wood nematodes (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) in September 2001,and examined in August 2002. The nematodes and the bacterium were isolated from the Black Pines which were inoculated. The results indicated that 5 individuals were healthy among 8 inoculated pine trees after 11 months. The aseptic pine wood nematodes could be isolated from the xylem of healthy Black Pines. The results showed that aseptic pine wood nematodes could not lead pine trees to wilt though the nematodes could parasize inside the xylem of pine trees.

Key words: aseptic, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, Pinus thunbergii, inoculation, pathogenicity
