Abstract

An assay using the full-cell method in an industrial autoclave was performed to evaluate the efficiency of vacuum pressure impregnation treatment with a commercial wood preservative product to eliminate the pinewood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, from infected Pinus pinaster wood trunks and sections. After treatment and wood incubation, no live nematodes were detected in the treated trunks and sections. This treatment revealed to be a good way to eliminate nematodes from wood and to reduce the risk of pinewood nematode dissemination.
