Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first in a series which forms a part of the rich Soviet helminthological literature published in recent years. It deals with 197 species of nematodes belonging to suborders Spirurata and Filariata, re-examining and revising earlier descriptions and concepts related to them. A historical survey of the taxonomy of worms is given first, with keys to the various major groups and diagnoses of the nematode subclasses and orders. Even at this stage, certain new and interesting ideas are put forward. After a general account of the morphology and anatomy of each suborder, a diagnosis of each genius is given, together with an outline and drawing of its type species.

Download or read book Plant Parasitic Nematodes written by Bert Zuckerman and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant Parasitic Nematodes, Volume III provides a comprehensive discussion of the different advances in plant nematology. This includes biochemical techniques to taxonomy and innovation in transmission and scanning electron microscopy technology. It explains a broadened basis for understanding nematode physiology and behavior and the sensory mechanisms that govern nematode actions and plant host-nematode interactions. The book discusses the development of modern approaches to the evaluation and reduction of crop losses. The emphasis of this volume is on plant parasites and insights gained through research on other nematodes. In particular, the book explains the anatomical, developmental, behavioral, and genetic studies on the free-living nematode Cenorhabditis elegans, which is a widely used laboratory model for examining various biological problems. The information provided by various researches on C. elegans increases our understanding about the relevance of nematodes to general biological processes in higher organisms, including man. The book is divided into 19 chapters which cover the following concepts of plant nematology: biochemistry, cytochemistry, and genetics; morphology and function; host-parasite relations; and evaluation and control of crop losses. The present volume is an excellent reference for students, lecturers, and research professionals in plant parasitology and related fields.
Download or read book Keys to the Nematode Parasites of Vertebrates written by Lynda M. Gibbons and published by CABI. This book was released on 2010 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years the Keys have provided a working tool to those within the field and laboratory needing to know "what is this worm?" They have also helped to establish a classification, using associations of characters, that gives real insight into nematode relationships across the group and their lines of evolution. This supplementary volume is designed to complement the original CIH Keys, now reprinted as one volume, with the additional convenience of reordering into superfamily. The supplement includes revised and redescribed taxa and draws attention to new taxa, to generic level, published by many authors after the original Keys were complete. It also identifies the current position of some of the older genera not included in the original Keys.

Download or read book The Evolutionary History of Nematodes written by George O. Poinar Jr. and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2011-03-05 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nematodes are one of the most abundant groups of invertebrates on the face of the earth. Their numbers are estimated to range from 1000 per cm2 in the sand-covered hydrogen sulphide ‘black zone’ beneath the ocean floors to 1.2 billion in a single hectare of soil. Estimates for their species diversity range from 100 000 to 10 million. The past history of nematodes is a mystery, since very few fossils have been discovered. This book establishes a solid base in palaeonematology with descriptions of 66 new fossil species and accounts of all previous fossil and subfossil nematodes from sedimentary deposits, coprolites, amber and mummies. It shows how nematode fossils can be used to establish lineages at various locations and time periods in the earth’s history and when nematodes entered into symbiotic and parasitic associations with plants and animals.
Download or read book Key to Parasitic Nematodes Volume 2 Oxyurata and Ascaridata written by K I Skryabin and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-08-14 with total page 715 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 2 offers a unique classification of two large suborders of nematodes: Oxyurata and Ascaridata. A total of 748 species, constituting 146 genera and 21 families, distributed among 4 superfamilies - Oxyuroidea, Subuleroidea, Cosmocercoidea, and Atractoidea - are included in the suborder Oxyurata. Another 424 species, included in 44 genera and 5 families, distributed in 2 superfamilies - Ascaridoidea and Anisakoidea - comprise the suborder Ascaridata. The present work is unique not only because it represents the first classification of all the known memgers of the suborder Oxyurata, and a radical revision of the taxonomy of the suborder Ascaridata, but also for defining taxonomic features for every taxon based on both the literature published in the last 100 years and extensive personal research. Helminthologists will welcome this book for two reasons: its obvious value in systematizing the oxyurids identified up to 1950 into a cohesive, scientifically well founded taxonomic subdivision of Nematoda, and as a collation of all the material published worldwide on members of the suborder Oxyurata available to the authors at that time.

Download or read book The Plant Parasitic Nematode Genus Meloidogyne G ldi 1892 Tylenchida in Europe written by Gerrit Karssen and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-08-04 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The genus Meloidogyne Göldi, 1892, or root-knot nematodes, represent a relatively small but economically important group of obligate plant pathogens. They are distributed worldwide and parasitize on almost every higher plant species. While reproducing and feeding within roots, they induce galls or root-knots and disorder the physiology of the infected plant, reducing crop yield and product quality. More than eighty nominal species have been described worldwide, while twenty species have been detected in Europe so far. This book includes a historical review on the genus, followed by a revision of the European species, and completed with a study on one of the most characteristic morphological structures within the genus: the perineal pattern.
Download or read book Nematode Identification and Expert System Technology written by R. Fortuner and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-05-31 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need to identify and name organisms is fundamental to any area of biological science, basic or applied. In order to study or conduct research on an organism, or to convey information on this organism to others, we must be able to attribute to it a consistent label. Attribution of an incorrect label may have dire consequences if dangerous plant parasites are wrongly identified as members of an innocuous genus. Traditional aids to nematode identification (dichotomous keys) use systematic criteria not always well adapted to practical identification. Their reliance on dichotomous principlesdoes not allow for intra-taxon variability or for missing characters. They are difficult to update and they cannot keep pace with rapidly changing classifications. As experts in everyday life, we recognize a horse or a dog wi thout referring to the taxonomic descriptions of the genera Equus or Canis and their respective species. Problems in identification arise when we are not experts in the recognition of a particular organism, or group of organisms. Then, frequently in considerable frustration, we reflect on the usefulness of having the advice of an expert in this group. Tradi tional identification aids are useful tools for the expert identifiers, and for teaching. Their use is often difficult for general practitioners in nematology, and they may lead to incorrect identification, even at the genus level.
