Plant-parasitic nematodes are among the most destructive plant
pathogens, causing enormous losses to agronomic crops worldwide.
This book provides an up-to-date review of research related to two
of the most important nematode pests, root-knot and cyst nematodes.
Chapters cover early plant-nematode interactions, identification of
nematode proteins important in the establishment of nematode
feeding sites, and classification of biochemical and signaling
pathways significant in the development of specialized feeding
sites in the host. The cellular and subcellular structures
essential for the parasitic interaction are examined by light and
electron microscopy. Modern techniques of gene expression analyses
and genomic sequencing are poised to provide an even greater wealth
of information to researchers, enabling them to develop and examine
natural and manmade mechanisms of resistance to this important
plant pest.
