Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The pine wilt disease continues devastative influence on the forest ecosystem of the world. The causal agent is the pine wood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, spread mainly in East Asia and Europa by Monochamus beetles. In this project, we showed the dynamics of microbiomes under the pine wilt disease environment. We also revealed its unique ecological function by molecular genetic approaches, focusing on the oxidative stress response that is the initial defense reaction in plants against pathogenic infection.
