Mostrar más [+] Menos [-]The pine wood nematode (PWN) Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner & Buhrer, 1934 (Nickle, 1970), is a pathogenic species in the genus Bursaphelenchus Fuchs, 1937. The introduction and establishment of PWN in the Setubal Peninsula, Portugal (Mota et al., 1999), and the evidence that Monochamus galloprovincialis is its insect vector in this country (Sousa et al., 2001), has stimulated studies on its further distribution and its potential vector insects in Europe, including Spain. There is a clear risk of spread of pine wood nematode into Spanish territory from Portugal, both as a result of natural spread and due to the important timber trade between the two countries.
