Abstract

One of the potential threats to coniferous forests of the Russian Federation is the spread of pine wilt disease caused by the pinewood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. This quarantine organism has not yet been detected in Russia, but is widespread in neighbouring countries: China, Japan, South Korea. In natural pine plantations the spreading of B. xylophilus is carried out by Monochamus beetles, but stressed trees are also infeсted by other insects, in particular by bark beetles of the genus Ips. The results of studies conducted under controlled laboratory conditions on the possibility of transfer of B. xylophilus nematodes by the bark beetle Ips acuminatus are presented. For this purpose, two types of pine (Pinus sylvestris) logs with I. acumunatus (type I) and artificially infested with B. xylophilus (type II) were placed together in one cage. I. acuminatus beetles were found in nematode-infested pine logs, and after 25 days, 47% of the emerging beetles in the infested wood contained the B. xylophilus juveniles. The nematodes B. paraburgeri, B. doui, Teratorhabditis synpapillata, Micoletzkya synpapillata were also found in I. acuminatus beetles and wood. The nematodes were identified using molecular genetic diagnostic methods. The highest number of nematodes in beetles (91%) was found in the mid-thoracic section of bark beetles under the elytra. No nematodes were found in the beetles during water flushing from the beetle surface. The results suggest that the bark beetle I. acuminatus may be a vector by pathogenic nematodes B. xylophilus.
