In Poland, the survey for the presence of B. xylophilus has been conducted since 2003 by inspectors of the State Plant Health and Seed Inspection Service in cooperation with the Governmental Forests. In the period 2003-2005, laboratories of the State Plant Health and Seed Inspection Service examined 5 454 samples of wood, chips, sawdust, etc. In 13 samples (0.24%) nematodes of the genus Bursaphelenchus were found. B. mucronatus was found in 11 samples (0.21%). Nematodes found in another two samples were recognized as belonging to the species B. glochis and B. sexdentati based on their morphological features. © 2008 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
