Abstract/Contents: | Profiles nematodes, stating that they "are really very abundant organisms occupying second place after insects in terms of the number of different kinds." Explains that nematodes are second-class pathogens. States that "plant nematodes are non-segmented roundworms that are totally unrelated to 'toads.' They have inhabited the soils of [Earth] for a very long time." Describes nematode infection, stating that "healthy plants can be present right next to the 'sick' ones." Explains that "the plant nematodes in the root-zone 'horizon' actually often represent only a part of the nematode population that is present there. Nematodes that feed on bacteria, fungi, and various soil animals including other nematodes often are even more abundant in the root-zone and typically more active than are the plant parasites." |
