We identified two novel expansin (EXP) genes in the expressed sequence tag database of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, designated as Bx-EXPB2 and -EXPB3. Novel Bx-EXPBs encoded 150 amino acids and their similarities in coding sequence were 70.7-84.0% to the previously reported EXPB1 of B. xylophilus. Bx-EXPB2 and Bx-EXPB3 were clustered with Bx-EXPB1 and Bm-EXPB1, respectively, forming the independent phylogeny with other nematode EXPs. All identified Bx-EXPBs contained the signal peptide and were only expressed during the propagative stage, suggesting that they are secreted to facilitate nematode migration through hosts by loosening cell walls during infection. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis showed that the relative accumulation of Bx-EXPB3 mRNAs was the highest among the three Bx-EXPs examined and the order of mRNA accumulation was as follows: Bx-EXPB3 > Bx-EXPB2 >> Bx-EXPB1. Homology modeling of Bx-EXPBs showed that the structurally optimum template was EXLX1 protein of Bacillus subtilis, whichshared residues essential for catalytic activity with Bx-EXPB1 and Bx-EXPB2 except for Bx-EXPB3. Taken together, Bx-EXPB1 and Bx-EXPB2 may be involved migration through plant tissues and play a role in pathogenesis.

소나무재선충(Bursaphelenchus xylophilus)에 의해서 발생하는 소나무재선충병은 우리나라 소나무림에 피해를 주고 있다. 본 연구는 친환경 소나무재선충 방제제 개발을 위하여 살선충 활성이 뛰어난 미생물을 선발하고자 실험을 수행하였다. 소나무재선충에 대하여 살선충 효과를 나타내는 미생물을 선발하기 위해 5종 미생물의 배양액 처리를 통해 살선충 활성이 뛰어난 Bacillus licheniformis MH48을 선발하였다. B. licheniformis MH48의 살선충 효과를 검증하기 위해 세포 생육과 단백질 분해 효소 활성도를 분석하였는데, 세포 생육은 배양 3일째 가장 높았고 단백질 분해 효소 활성은 7일째에 가장 높은 활성을 보였다. 또한, B. licheniformis MH48의 배양액 농도에 따른 소나무재선충의 살선충 활성을 조사한 결과, 키틴-젤라틴(CG) 배지와 키틴-선충(CN) 배지 모두 20% 배양액 처리시 치사율이 80% 이상으로 나타났다. 특히, B. licheniformis MH48 배양액 처리 후 시간이 지남에 따라 소나무재선충의 표피가 분해되는 것을 관찰하였다. 이러한 결과로 B. licheniformis MH48은 소나무재선충을 생물학적으로 방제할 수 있는 방제제로서 가능성과 가치가 있다고 사료된다.

초산(acetic acid)과 젖산(lactic acid)의 혼합액(MX)의 심비디움 배양토에 오염된 소나무재선충(Bursaphelenchus xylophilus)의 방제효과를 조사하였다. 실내실험에서 초산과 혼합액은 5.0-1.0% (pH 2.6-4.2)에서 젖산은 5.0%에서만 100%가까운 살선충율을 나타내었고 이보다 낮은 농도(0.5-0.1%, pH 5.1-6.9)에서는 초산과 혼합액보다 젖산에서 살선충력이 유의적으로 낮아졌다. 대부분의 농도에서 혼합액의 살선충율이 초산과 젖산의 평균보다 유의적으로 높게 나타나 혼합액의 살선충력 상승효과가 있을 것으로 판단된다. 폿트실험에서 유기산 혼합액(0.5%, 0.25%), 살선충제(fosthiazate, 표준량, 배량) 및 길항세균(Paenibacillus polymyxa GBR-1) 배양 희석액($10^7CFU/ml$) 등의 처리에 의해 심비디움 배양토에서의 소나무재선충의 밀도가 처리간에는 유의적인 차이가 없이 무처리에 비해 유의적으로 감소하였다. 모든 처리에서 약해가 나타나지 않았고, 처리 후 시기별 pH와 2년생 심비디움의 생육에 무처리 대조구와 유의적인 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 이러한 결과와 이들 식용 유기산의 안전성과 가격을 종합하여 볼 때, 심비디움의 재배 관리 중 생육단계에 따라 이 유기산 혼합액의 지속적인 사용은 검역해충의 방제에 있어서 친환경적이고 실제적으로 유효한 하나의 방법일 것이다.

본 연구에서는 해상도가 상이한 시기별 위성영상과 GIS를 이용하여 경남 통영시 한산면 추봉도 지역의 소나무재선충(Bursaphelenchus Xylophilus) 피해지역을 탐지하고 다양한 영상처리를 통하여 이를 효율적으로 추출 할 수 있는 기법을 선정하였다. 연구결과 피해지역의 공간적 범위를 추출하기 위해서는 감독분류의 MHC(Mahalanobis Distance Classification)가 유용하였고 벌채 후의 토지피복 분류로 인한 피해지역 추출을 위해서는 MLC(Maximum Likelihood Classification)가 최적한 기법으로 나타났다. 아울러 이에 관련된 GIS를 구축하여 공간정보를 추출함으로써 피해지역의 공간적 분포특성을 규명하였는데 고도 약 120-160m, 경사 21$^{\circ}$-40$^{\circ}$ 그리고 서쪽 방향 사면에서 소나무재선충이 가장 활발하게 활동하였음이 밝혀졌다.

We conducted an inoculation test using nine open-pollinated families of pine trees to evaluate their susceptibility and mortality in different densities of pine wood nematode. Three-year-old nine open-pollinated pine families were inoculated with Bursaphelenchus xylophilus at levels of 3,000, 5,000, and 7,000 nematodes/seedling in greenhouse. There were no distinct patterns in latent period among three densities of B. xylophilus in all families. Most families showed the first disease symptoms of needle discoloration within 12-15 days after inoculation. However, open-pollinated progenies of Pinus densiflora showed the longest latent period because none of one-year-old needles were wilted until 14 days after inoculation with 5,000 and 7,000 nematodes. One-year-old needles were wilted earlier than current needles in all tested families with all densities of B. xylophilus. Current needles were not wilted until 14 days after inoculation in all seedlings. The mortality of all seedlings rapidly increased from 35 days to 49 days after inoculation, and all died within 80 days except two seedlings. A 3,000 nematodes/100 ${\mu}L$ with sterilized distilled water are enough to screen 3-year-old pine seedlings for resistance to B. xylophilus.

Three-year-old seedlings of susceptible Pinus densiflora and resistant Pinus x rigitaeda were each inoculated with the pinewood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, to compare disease development. Needle dehydration was evident on seedlings of P. densiflora by 20 days after inoculation, 10 days earlier than this symptom was observed on P. ${\times}$ rigitaeda. Xylem drying was more frequent in seedlings of P. densiflora than in that of P. ${\times}$ rigitaeda between 20 and 60 days after inoculation. No significant differences were found between P. densiflora and P. ${\times}$ rigitaeda for stem water content or for stem and leaf relative water content in current-year branches after nematode inoculation, but the average number of B. xylophilus recovered from stems differed significantly between the two groups. The number of B. xylophilus recovered from stems was negatively correlated with the stem water content and with stem and leaf relative water content. By the time the experiment was terminated at 60 days after inoculation, all 3 of the last group of P. densiflora seedlings had died, but 2 of the 3 remaining P. ${\times}$ rigitaeda hybrid seedlings were still alive. Additional studies are needed to further explore the specific mechanisms preventing nematode multiplication in the seedlings of resistant P. ${\times}$ rigitaeda.

Abamectin offers great protection against Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, a well-known devastating pathogen of pine tree stands. Trunk injection of nematicides is currently the most preferred method of control. This study aimed to evaluate the potency of the commonly used formulations of abamectin against B. xylophilus. Twenty-one formulations of abamectin were evaluated by comparing their sublethal toxicities and reproduction inhibition potentials against B. xylophilus. Nematodes were treated with diluted formulation concentrations in multi-well culture plates. And, populations preexposed to pre-determined concentrations of the formulations were inoculated onto Botrytis cinerea culture, and in pine twig cuttings. Potency was contrastingly different among formulations, with LC₉₅ of 0.00285 and 0.39462 mg/ml for the most, and the least potent formulation, respectively. Paralysis generally occurred at an application dose of 0.06 ㎍/ml or higher, and formulations with high sublethal toxicities caused significant paralysis levels at the tested doses, albeit the variations. Nematode reproduction was evident at lower doses of 0.00053-0.0006 ㎍/ml both on Botrytis cinerea and pine twigs, with significant variations among formulations. Thus, the study highlighted the inconsistencies in the potency of similar product formulations with the same active ingredient concentration against the target organism, and the need to analyze the potential antagonistic effects of the additives used in formulations.

Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis Sieb. et Zucc.), a five-needle pine, has recently been suffering pine wilt disease caused by non-native pinewood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. Three-year-old Korean pine seedlings were inoculated with 10,000 pathogenic nematodes in a greenhouse to investigate disease development, water content and the density of nematodes in stems. Needle dehydration, xylem drying and pith browning started 20 days after inoculation (DAI). There were significant differences between seedlings inoculated with nematodes and control seedlings in the relative water content of stems and leaves at 20 and 30 DAI. At 60 DAI, all remaining seedlings inoculated with nematodes had died, but control seedlings all remained alive. The average number of nematodes recovered from stems of Korean pine dramatically increased from 10 to 20 DAI, and then decreased at the end of the experiment at 60 days. This study suggests that the relative water content of stems and leaves in current-year branches could be used as a useful physiological indicator for early diagnosis of pine wilt disease.
