B. xylophilus Busters
The attempt to kill pine-wood nematodes by feeding RNAi
1. Pine is an important tree that plays a role as a beautiful landscape and anti-sand forest. However, this tree has been lost by pine wilt disease in recent years.
2. Pine wilt disease is caused by B. xylophilus, an exogenous nematode, mediated by a carriage, Pinus thunbergii.Currently no effective countermeasures have been established for B. xylophilus.
3. we plan to use genetically engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae that express dsRNA, and feed them to B. xylophilus to regain the beautiful pine forest.
