Moulting of parasitic nematodes
International Journal for Parasitology, 1987Abstract Nematodes are usually divided into two major groups, the Adenophora which are common in water and the Secernentea largely from soil. Most research on moulting has been done with the Secernentea, which include the majority of the parasitic forms.

Speciation in Parasitic Nematodes
1971Publisher Summary Speciation is a process of multiplication by which one genetically connected population divides into two such populations between which genetic interchange is not possible. It is considered a crucial process upon which evolution depends, as without barriers to genetic interchange, the organic world cannot contain such diverse ...

An eye on RNAi in nematode parasites
Trends in Parasitology, 2011RNA interference (RNAi) has revolutionised approaches to gene function determination. From a parasitology perspective, gene function studies have the added dimension of providing validation data, increasingly deemed essential to the initial phases of drug target selection, pre-screen development.

Endosymbionts of Plant-Parasitic Nematodes
Annual Review of Phytopathology, 2018Some of the most agriculturally important plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) harbor endosymbionts. Extensive work in other systems has shown that endosymbionts can have major effects on host virulence and biology. This review highlights the discovery, development, and diversity of PPN endosymbionts, incorporating inferences from genomic data.

Getting to the roots of parasitism by nematodes
Trends in Parasitology, 2004Most phytoparasitic nematodes infect plant roots and some species have evolved sophisticated interactive relationships with host cells to sustain a sedentary parasitic habit. The recent isolation of multiple 'parasitism genes' expressed specifically within the esophageal gland cells of sedentary phytonematodes suggests that an arsenal of different ...

Prerequisites for Parasitism in Rhabditid Nematodes
Journal of Parasitology, 2010To evaluate their potential for survival in a vertebrate host, dauer larvae from 7 species of rhabditid nematodes were subjected to in vitro conditions designed to emulate those of a vertebrate digestive tract. Dauer larvae from 3 of the 7 species, selected for their ability to survive elevated temperatures and low pH, and representing differing types ...

Genes and genomes of parasitic nematodes
Parasitology Today, 1992Our knowledge of gene and genome organization in nematodes is growing rapidly, partly as a result of the Caenorhabditis elegans genome project. Here Martin Hammond and Ted Bianco review what is known about the organization of genes and genomes in parasitic nematode species, using information gained from molecular and cytological approaches.

Biology of Plant-Parasitic Nematodes
The Journal of Parasitology, 1962Areas for future research in culturing, nutrition, and physiology of parasitism of plantparasitic nematodes are discussed. Culturing nematodes monoxenically on plant tissue cultures has been successful with several species, but the ultimate aim is propagation on nonliving media.

Hypobiosis in Parasitic Nematodes—An Update
1986Publisher Summary This chapter reviews the role of hypobiosis in the biology of nematodes. Successful transfer from an infected host to a susceptible one represents a most important achievement in the parasitic way of life. Any developmental adaptation that serves to facilitate this process is, therefore, extremely important in the epidemiology of ...
