The evolution of entomopathogeny in nematodes
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2024.Through convergent evolution, the entomopathogeny in nematodes is widespread within the Rhaditidae families, owing to the shared ecological and evolutionary attributes raised from saprophagy, phoresis, and necromeny. Abstract Understanding how parasites evolved is crucial to understand the host and parasite interaction.
