Interactions of nematodes with insects

  • Chapter
Nematode Interactions

Abstract

There are over 3000 reported parasitic and phoretic associations between nematodes and insects, with less than ten involving phytoparasitic nematodes (Poinar, 1975). Nematodes are aquatic metazoans with very limited powers of dispersion. They are greatly benefited by a synchronized association with an insect host for increased mobility and protection during travel to an insect’s breeding or feeding sites.
