Evolution of life cycles of nematodes parasitizing woody plants as a result of ecological and phylogenetic co-adaptations with hosts and vectors
A. Yu. Ryss
Abstract:Fundamental aspects in the evolution of nematodes parasitizing woody plants are reviewed. 1) Nematode faunal lists of natural refigia are useful to predict the risks of opportunistic pathogens becoming true pathogens in the forest and park communities. 2) Nematode composition in natural refugia gives a chance to identify nematode antagonists of insect vectors of dangerous fungal and nematode infections, which can be potentially used as of the biological agents for woody plants’ protection. 3) Dauers of the anc… Show more
