The major objective of this book is to highlight the significance
of phytonematodes in horticulture. Detailed and latest information
on major aspects of phytonematodes associated exclusively with
horticultural crops, which is the need of the day, is lacking.
Hence, the book has been written mainly with the objective of
providing its readers, comprehensive information on the advanced
aspects related to phytonematodes associated with horticultural
crops. It also provides basic information on plant parasitic
nematodes since it is required for a better understanding of
advanced topics. Several popular topics, information on which is
already available in plenty, have been avoided. Thus, book
explicates both the essential fundamental and advanced aspects
pertaining to nematodes associated with horticultural crops. The
book is conveniently divided into 13 chapters, which cover latest
information on the major fundamental and advanced
aspects related to phytonematodes including the role of
phytonematodes in horticultural industry, phylogenetic and
evolutionary concepts in nematodes, major phytonematodes associated
with horticultural crops and their diagnostic keys, symptoms
caused by phytonematodes and disease diagnosis, nematode population
threshold levels, crop loss assessment, nematode diseases of
horticultural crops and their management, nematode disease
complexes, genetics of nematode parasitism, important nematological
techniques and nematodes of quarantine importance. An exclusive
chapter on novel methods of nematode management has been included
mainly to provide the information on the latest molecules and novel
modes of managing nematodes attacking horticultural crops. Routine
nematode management aspects, information on which is already
available, have not been discussed; instead, this topic reflects
the changing scenario of future nematode management. Hence, this
book can serve as a friendly guide to meet the requirements of the
students, teachers and researchers interested in these
âhidden enemiesâ of the grower, apart from the research and
extension personnel working under Public organizations, officials
of State departments of Horticulture, Forestry, field workers and
all those concerned and working with plant parasitic nematodes.
Appropriate diagrams, convincing tables and suitable
graphs/illustrations have been furnished at right places. A
complete bibliography has also been included.
