The pine wood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus (Steiner and Buhrer) Nickel) is one of the causes of pine wilt. The serious damage to forests has been ongoing for 70 years and now threatens the local coniferous forests in China. Not much is known about the biology and pathogenesis of pine wood nematodes, but the introduction of mixed vectors may lead to increased nematode damage.

Kubtec Plant Seed Phenotype Analysis Plant X-ray Imaging KUBTEC Botany X-ray Machine can be applied in:
1. Non destructive quarantine inspection of pine wood nematode disease is strictly prohibited, and the transportation of damaged wood is strictly prohibited. Control and inspection of breeding materials such as insect infested seedlings are necessary to prevent the spread and spread of dangerous pests and diseases.
2. Breeding disease resistant tree species and insect resistant varieties is an important part of preventing nematodes. The same tree species forms different varieties as a result of long-term natural and artificial selection. Different traits may lead to differences in insect resistance. It is possible to conduct non-destructive testing using KUBTEC botanical X-ray machines to study the nematode infestation of different seedlings and select dominant insect resistant plants.
3. Evaluation of prevention and control effects can be carried out through the non-destructive testing function of KUBTEC botanical X-ray machine to assess the prevention and control effects of different methods, drugs, or insect mediators on nematodes.

Application of breeding selection and retention of seeds
Seed germination requires support from environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity, but these are all external factors. If it does not have the ability to germinate, even if the external environment is good, the seed will still not germinate. The KUBTEC seed X-ray equipment is used to capture non-destructive images of the inside of seeds, and to inspect whether the embryo inside the seeds is sound, whether there are voids, pests, mold, etc. through imaging, thereby providing support for the preliminary screening of seeds. In addition, the image display method of the line also provides convenience for observing the internal quality of seeds, making seed internal detection more intuitive, convenient, fast, and efficient, greatly improving the efficiency and level of seed detection. The establishment of the Yunnan National Plant Seed Bank utilized X-ray equipment for germplasm identification and selected high-quality seeds for storage.

Plant taxonomy research and establishment of digital specimen library
There are estimated to be over 500000 plant species (around 250000 seed plants) living on Earth. To study such a large number of plants that are vastly different from each other, it is necessary to first classify them according to their natural properties, from coarse to fine, from the surface to the interior, otherwise there is no way to start. The KUBTEC Botany Digital X-ray Analysis System can effectively solve the classification and labeling of subtle differences in morphology.
Combined with HD CCD, it is possible to establish a digital plant specimen library by comparing and overlaying full-color plant digital specimens and X-ray imaging images.
