Transmission of Pine Wood Nematode to Cut Timber and Girdled Trees. [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
Bursaphelenchus xylophilus was recovered from Pinus nigra, P. banksiana and P. resinosa logs 4 months after they had been cut from healthy trees that did not contain nematodes. B. xylophilus was found only in logs in which cerambycid beetles had oviposited. Similarly, only previously girdled jack pine that had been colonized by cerambycid beetles contained B. xylophilus. The results of this study show that B. xylophilus can be transmitted to cut timber and dying trees and suggest that the nematode may be transmitted to dead and dying trees without necessarily being the primary cause of their death.
