Many species of the phylum Nematoda, the nonsegmented worms, play
an important role as animal or plant parasites; most species are
active contributors to the decomposition cycle in soil ecosystems,
but the details of that contribution are just beginning to be
understood. Agricultural nematologists, vitally involved in the
study of the methodology, taxonomy, and biology of the species due
to the direct relationship between crop yield and the size of
plant-parasitic nematode populations, have provided much
information about the nematodes. More recently, ecologists have
contributed additional data on the structure and function of the
total soil community, including energy flow and nutrient cycling,
and have examined the critical and multifaceted role of soil
nematodes in such communities. Nematodes in Soil Ecosystems
provides a valuable synthesis of significant research in this area
and may stimulate further important communication between the
agricultural and ecological branches of nematode research.
