Pine wilt disease, caused by nematodes transmitted by pine sawyer beetles, is deadly for several pine species and can lead to significant ecological and financial losses. This study presents a model of the disease in pine trees, considering the interaction between nematodes, transmitting beetles, and both asymptomatic and symptomatic trees. The dynamics of the disease are analyzed using nonlinear coupled integer order ODEs, and the basic reproduction number is calculated. Sensitivity analysis is conducted for the most sensitive parameters, and numerical results are obtained using MATLAB software. It is observed that reducing the interaction between infected beetles and susceptible trees can greatly reduce the infection, and conclusions are drawn based on the obtained results.
Pine wilt disease is caused by nematodes transmitted by pine sawyer beetles and is fatal for several pine species. The trees might be destroyed within a few months after being attacked, leads to major ecological and financial losses. In this article, we presented a model of pine wilt disease in the trees considering the interaction between nematodes, transmitting beetles with both asymptomatic and symptomatic pine trees. The disease dynamics is first displayed through a schematic diagram which is then transformed to non-linear coupled integer order ODEs through the law of mass action. The positivity, boundedness and equilibrium points has been analyzed and basic reproduction number is calculated through the next generation technique. Sensitivity analysis is also done for the most sensitive parameters which is also displayed through different figures and tables. The solution of the considered nonlinear fractal-fractal model has been obtained through numerical method via MATLAB software. Some numerical results have been obtained and it has been observed that the fractional model give us the more general results by considering different non-integer orders and the integer order results can be easily recovered. It is also noticed that reducing the interaction among the infected beetles and susceptible trees by killing the main source of the infection i.e., killing beetles can reduce the infection drastically, which are briefly discussed and conclusion has been drawn on the basis of the obtained results.(c) 2022 IMACS.
