AI critic verdicts
- agroecologist · plausible
“B. xylophilus incidence in Spain documented post-Portugal spread; pine wilt expansion across Iberia is consistent with literature.”
- plant-pathologist · plausible
“Pinewood nematode incidence in Spain is documented (Mota & Vieira; later EPPO records); subject-pathogen direction and host genus correct.”
