Abstract: | A survey for Bursaphelenchus nematodes, associated with
different conifer trees, was conducted in several forest
areas in the northern regions of Turkey. Only pine trees
(Pinus nigra, P. pinaster and P. sylvestris) yielded Bursaphelenchus
specimens. Nematodes were identified using
several morphological diagnostic characters of the genus
(male spicule structure, number of lateral incisures, number
and distribution of the male papillae, presence of female
vulval flap), and confirmed by using RFLP analysis
of the internal transcriber spacer (ITS) regions of ribosomal
DNA. Three different species were identified from
several sampled areas, namely B. mucronatus, B. pinophilus
and B. sexdentati, representing a first report of the last
two species for Turkey. The association of B. pinophilus
with black pine (P. nigra) is herein reported for the first
time. |
