Genetic characteristics of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus third-stage dispersal juveniles

Abstract The third-stage dispersal juvenile (DJ3) of pinewood nematode (PWN) is highly associated with low-temperature survival and spread of the nematode. Oil-Red-O staining showed that its lipid content was significantly higher compared with other PWN stages. Weighted gene coexpression network ana...
