Abstract

Crude extracts of the surface coat (SC) proteins of the pine wood nematode (PWN),Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, and purified flagellin fromPseudomonas fluorescens (GcM5-1A) isolate were bioassayedusing symbiontic GcM5-1A and axenic PWNs, respectively. The results showed thatthe flagellin significantly increased the reproduction of axenic PWN and the SCprotein extracts of the PWN promoted GcM5-1A multiplication. The finding is anew step to further elucidate the symbiotic mechanism between the PWN and itsassociated bacteria and the SC protein function in pine wilt disease.
