Factors influencing the nematode community during composting and nematode-based criteria for compost maturity [PDF]
, 2018 Pilot studies indicate that shifts in the nematode species composition, life strategies and feeding behavior during composting appear to be fairly consistent and, therefore, promising as a potential tool to assess compost maturity. However, this has been

Integrated management of banana nematodes: Lessons from a case study in the French West Indies [PDF]
, 2010 Plant-parasitic nematodes are tiny worms that live in soils and roots; in the case of banana plants, they spend most of their life cycle in root and corm tissues. Their proliferation mainly disrupts nutrient and water uptake, delays growth, and may cause

Local adaptation of aboveground herbivores towards plant phenotypes induced by soil biota [PDF]
, 2010 Background: Soil biota may trigger strong physiological responses in plants and consequently induce distinct phenotypes. Plant phenotype, in turn, has a strong impact on herbivore performance.
