Techniques in Quantitative Nematology

  • Chapter
Experimental Techniques in Plant Disease Epidemiology

Abstract

Wide ranges in the kinds and numbers of plant-parasitic nematodes occur in all agroecosystems, including those with annual and perennial crops, ornamentals, forests, and even greenhouse crops (Freckman and Caswell 1985; Norton 1978). Although parasites may be present in low numbers to billions per hectare, only certain species cause major epidemics and crop losses.
