This book, divided into three parts, provides a wide range of information on plant-parasitic nematodes. The chapters in Part I presents the basic structures of nematodes, followed by a chapter on molecular taxonomy, systematics and phylogeny. The subsequent four chapters focus on the major groups of plant-parasitic nematodes, presenting information on their morphology, taxonomy, basic biology and management. Part II deals with nematode biology and plant nematode interactions. Part III focuses on quantitative nematology and management.
