This book summarizes the advances in nematology that have been made during the 20th century and provides perspectives for the development of nematology in the next century. Chapters comprise: plant diseases caused by nematodes; virus vectors; physiological interactions between nematodes and their host plants; taxonomy of insect parasitic nematodes; resistance to plant parasitic nematodes; crop rotation and other cultural practices as control strategies; use of antagonistic plants and natural products; biological control of nematodes by fungal antagonists; biological control of nematodes with bacterial antagonists; biological control of insects and other invertebrates; cost-benefits of nematode management through regulatory programmes; past and current uses of nematicides; and irradiation effects of plant parasitic nematodes.
