Research Progress on Biological Control of Pine Wood Nematode Vector Insects
This article reviews the types of vector insects for pine wood nematode disease and the progress in biological control research,focusing on the application and progress of pathogenic microorganisms(such as Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae)and natural enemies(such as Sclerodermus and Dastarcus helophoroides Fairmaire)in the biological control of vector insects for pine wood nematode disease.It also looks forward to future research directions,aiming to achieve more efficient and sustainable management of pine wood nematode disease.
