Entomopathogenic nematodes have the potential to shape the populations of plants and host insects, as well as the species composition of the surrounding animal soil community. Entomopathogenic nematodes affect populations of their insect hosts by killing and consuming individuals.
Tylenchidae is a family of nematodes. They are an important group of soil dwelling species that frequently contributes as much as 30% to the nematode species richness of soil samples. [2] They diverged relatively early on and many species pose little risk to economically important plant species. [2]
Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) are one of the three most economically damaging genera of plant-parasitic nematodes on horticultural and field crops.Root-knot nematodes are distributed worldwide, and are obligate parasites of the roots of thousands of plant species, including monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous, herbaceous and woody plants.
Whole blood with microfilaria worm, giemsa stain. L. loa worms have a simple structure consisting of a head (which lacks lips), a body, and a blunt tail. The outer body of the worm is composed of a cuticle with three main layers made up of collagen and other compounds which aid in protecting the nematodes while they are inside the digestive system of their host.
Nematodes (Nematoda or roundworms) are a phylum of animals. The phylum is subdivided in 3 classes : Chromadorea, Enoplea and Secernentea. The phylum is subdivided in 3 classes : Chromadorea, Enoplea and Secernentea.
Trichodoridae (stubby-root nematodes, trichodorids) is a family of terrestrial root feeding nematodes, being one of two that constitute suborder Triplonchida. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] They are economically important plant parasites and virus vectors.
