You have particle board directly on the joists and not OSB?
If it is OSB, you could place the wood floor directly over it.
At any rate, DO NOT GLUE the hardwood floor to the plywood. With temperature and humidity changes with the seasons, the expansion rates will be different, and you will have gaps and/or cracks develop in the wood floor.
Good Luck!
