Plant Parasitic Nematodes: A Review on Their Behaviour, Host Interaction, Management Approaches and Their Occurrence in Two Sites in the Republic of Ireland

Plants, 2021
Plant parasitic nematodes are a major problem for growers worldwide, causing severe crop losses. Several conventional strategies, such as chemical nematicides and biofumigation, have been employed in the past to manage their infection in plants and ...

Entomopathogenic nematodes [PDF]

Current Biology, 2012
What are entomopathogenic nematodes? Nematodes seem to have evolved to occupy nearly every niche imaginable, including a wide diversity of parasitic niches. Among the vast variety of parasitic nematodes, some have evolved an association with insect-pathogenic bacteria. Together the bacteria and nematode are a lethal duo.

Elevational patterns of soil nematode diversity, community structure and metabolic footprint in the Trikuta mountains of Northwestern Himalaya

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2023
Nematodes are an integral part of soil biodiversity and play a vital role in soil nutrient cycling. The Himalayan mountainous ecosystems are amongst the extreme environments in the world.

Nematode-Trapping Fungi Eavesdrop on Nematode Pheromones [PDF]

Current Biology, 2013
The recognition of molecular patterns associated with specific pathogens or food sources is fundamental to ecology and plays a major role in the evolution of predator-prey relationships. Recent studies showed that nematodes produce an evolutionarily highly conserved family of small molecules, the ascarosides, which serve essential functions in ...

The functional role and diversity of soil nematodes are stronger at high elevation in the lesser Himalayan Mountain ranges

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Soil nematodes are a foremost component of terrestrial biodiversity; they display a whole gamut of trophic guilds and life strategies, and by their activity, affect major ecosystem process, such as organic matter degradation and carbon cycling.

Two new species of the genus Coomansinema Ahmad and Jairajpuri, 1989 (Nematoda: Dorylaimida) with a key to its species

Helminthologia, 2019
Two new species of the genus Coomansinema Ahmad and Jairajpuri, 1989 are described and illustrated. C. japonicum n. sp. is characterized by having medium size body (L= 1.40 – 1.45 mm); lip region truncate with completely amalgamated lips; amphideal fovea
