Nematodes as environmental indicators /
The book comprises four parts. The first part (Chapters 1-3) deals with background issues relating to nematodes themselves and to bioindicators in general. Part II (Chapters 4-8) describes practical aspects of using nematode assemblages as bioindicators in real world settings. Part III (Chapters 9-1...
