Studies were carried out on wood samples taken from uninfested trees, those with low M. hellenica infestation, and those with high infestation. In the P. brutia wood heavily infested with M. hellenica, statistically significant decreases were found in the holocellulose and alpha-cellulose ratios, the tracheid number in latewood, the growth ring width in earlywood and latewood, and the density and strength values. However, the density arid strength values of the P. brutia wood samples that were not infested and those with low M. hellenica infestation did not statistically differ from one another.en10.1080/17480272.2022.2104133info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessWood Density; Wood Strength; Anatomical Properties; Chemical Properties; Pine HoneyBark; Defenses; Nematode; Density; ImpactArticle2-s2.0-85135859989WOS:000839420500001Q2Q2
