Esteya floridanum sp. nov.: An Ophiostomatalean Nematophagous Fungus and Its Potential to Control the Pine Wood Nematode

You Li et al.

Summary: The nematophagous fungal genus Esteya, a natural enemy of the pine wood nematode, was discovered in Florida with a new species named E. floridanum. It was found to kill the pine wood nematode in vitro and delay the death of two conifer trees in vivo, showing potential for biocontrol of pine wilt disease. This highlights the importance of studying pest organisms in their native regions.

Summary: This study successfully increased the production of Esteya vermicola lunate conidia using rice as a carrier, and determined the optimal infectivity concentration against pine wood nematode. UV irradiation and heat stress both influenced the growth and infectivity of lunate conidia.

Ethanol-Enriched Substrate Facilitates Ambrosia Beetle Fungi, but Inhibits Their Pathogens and Fungal Symbionts of Bark Beetles

Maximilian Lehenberger et al.

Summary: Bark beetles (sensu lato) and ambrosia beetles depend on fungal mutualists for colonization and reproduction, with the latter requiring mutualistic fungi for nutrition. Recent studies show that fungal mutualists of ambrosia beetles play a defensive role by producing, detoxifying, and metabolizing ethanol, benefiting their hosts in stressed trees.

Migration of pinewood nematode promotes the colonization of Esteya vermicola in pine tree

Hai-Hua Wang et al.

Summary: Esteya vermicola is a potential biological agent of the pinewood nematode (PWN) due to its high infectivity. This study reveals the distribution of E. vermicola and PWN during biocontrol of pine wilt disease and provides direct evidence of the effectiveness of this fungus to control PWN. This study found that inoculation with the fungus significantly improved the survival rate of tested trees and decreased the number of PWN extracted from fungal-inoculated tested trees.

The Mitogenomes of Ophiostoma minus and Ophiostoma piliferum and Comparisons With Other Members of the Ophiostomatales

Abdullah Zubaer et al.

Summary: Fungi belonging to the Ophiostomatales are of economic concern due to their blue-stain and plant pathogen characteristics. The study of mitogenomes in this group revealed both conservation and variability in gene content and order, with examples of complex introns and differences in genome sizes attributed to the presence or absence of introns. Taxonomic revisions within the Ophiostomatales have clarified some lineages but some remain unresolved, such as the polyphyletic nature of genera like Raffaelea and the distinction between Sporothrix sensu stricto and Ophiostoma.

Phoretic and internal transport of Raffaelea lauricola by different species of ambrosia beetle associated with avocado trees

Luisa F. Cruz et al.

Summary: Fungus farming ambrosia beetles carry Raffaelea lauricola, the causal agent of laurel wilt disease, in specialized structures and disperse fungal propagules phoretically on their exoskeleton. The recovery frequency and abundance of R. lauricola were species-specific among the five beetle species studied. Phoretic transmission of R. lauricola was found to be more prevalent and abundant than other mutualistic phoretic fungi across the beetle species, indicating a potential role in avocado infection.

Raffaelea quercina sp. nov. Associated with Cork Oak (Quercus suber L.) Decline in Portugal

Maria L. Inacio et al.

Summary: The study identified a new phytopathogenic fungal species associated with the ambrosia beetle Platypus cylindrus and cork oak trees showing symptoms of vegetative decline. Future research on the association between P. cylindrus and Raffaelea species would help clarify the relationships between ambrosia beetles, associated fungi, and cork oak decline.

Maximum Entropy Modeling to Predict the Impact of Climate Change on Pine Wilt Disease in China

Xinggang Tang et al.

Summary: Pine wilt disease caused by the pinewood nematode is a devastating forest disease in China, with the southern area of the Yangtze River being the most severely affected. Climate change influences the distribution of pine trees and the spread of the nematode. In the future, the suitable habitat for the nematode is expected to increase, requiring appropriate measures to prevent its expansion.

Insights into the Role of Fungi in Pine Wilt Disease

Claudia S. L. Vicente et al.

Summary: Pine wilt disease is a complex disease affecting the biodiversity and economy of Eurasian coniferous forests, with the main factors being the pinewood nematode, insect-vector, and host tree. Study of fungal communities associated with the disease has revealed the importance of certain fungi for nematode multiplication and distribution, while others may potentially serve as biocontrol agents.
