Specifically-expressed genes of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus involved in the nematode’s early interaction with pine trees. Bursaphelenchus xylophilus

This study compared the different gene expression of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus in two growth conditions (growing on Botrytis cinerea and inoculating Pinus thunbergii). The goal was to analyze the specifically-expressed genes of the pine wood nematode involved in the early interaction between B. xylophilus and P. thunbergii and screen the pathogenesis related genes of B. xylophilus. Overall design: Two-condition experiment, Growing on Botrytis cinerea vs. Inoculating Pinus thunbergii . Biological replicates: 3 replicates.
