| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To identify the sex pheromones of the pine wood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, GC-MS and chemotaxis assays were conducted. In this study, the four compounds were successfully identified as sex pheromones secreted by the female. This finding is useful for development of the new control method of the pine wood nematodes.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究により、マツ材線虫病の病原体であるマツノザイセンチュウの性フェロモン物質が初めて明らかとなった。これらの物質は線虫の増殖（繁殖）において非常に重要な因子である。今回の研究成果を元に、今後線虫の交尾を撹乱するという新たな防除手法の開発が期待できる。
