Book Synopsis Handbook of Practical Nematology by : D.C. Gupta
Download or read book Handbook of Practical Nematology written by D.C. Gupta and published by Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2018-01-17 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nematology is the discipline of science that deals with the study of nematodes or roundworms. Current requirements of practical nematological work and unavailability of expertise and studies in this field indicate a dire need to encourage the likes of this book on the neglected groups of organisms. The authors, in the present book, have attempted to cover the practical aspects of Nematology for U.G. and P.G. students, teachers and research workers. Rather than enlisting numerous methods adopted by various workers, an emphasis is given to most commonly used techniques for every exercise. Additionally, to gain in depth knowledge on a particular topic, further readings have been suggested at the end of each exercise. Illustrations have also been given that will help the readers in the identification of common nematode species and disease symptoms caused by them.
Book Synopsis Entomopathogenic Nematodes and Their Symbiotic Bacteria by : S. Sivaramakrishnan
Download or read book Entomopathogenic Nematodes and Their Symbiotic Bacteria written by S. Sivaramakrishnan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides basic information and different protocols associated with the Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) and their symbiotic bacteria. Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) of the genera Steinernema and Heterorhabditis and their associated bacterial symbionts Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus aid nematode infective juveniles (IJs) in infecting and killing their insect hosts, creating a unique tripartite complex of host-vector-symbiont interactions. Due to this insect killing capability, EPNs are used as biological control agents of economically important insect pests. They are also a model system to study host-parasite interactions. It provides a systematic approach to various nematode procedures including pathogenicity, reproduction, foraging behaviour. It gives a brief outline on historical aspects, nematode-bacterium complex, biology and chemical ecology of EPNs. It concisely describes host insect rearing, nematode sampling and storage, isolation techniques, counting, handling and staining of nematodes, characterization including morphological, molecular and ecological studies, mass production, virulence bioassay, field application and efficacy. The book also includes methods and techniques for their associated symbiotic bacteria. This book serves as a laboratory manual and assists the readers to undertake advanced research in different aspects related to nematodes. It is useful for researchers in the fields of nematology, microbiology, bacteriology and entomology.

Book Synopsis Horticultural Nematology by : N.G. Ravichandra
Download or read book Horticultural Nematology written by N.G. Ravichandra and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-06-05 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 ‘hidden enemies’ 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.
