商品簡介
Rotylenchus is a cosmopolitan genus of plant-parasitic nematodes that are predominantly found in temperate regions of the world; some of its species parasitize vegetables, ornamentals, and fruit and forest trees. Castillo (sustainable agriculture, Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Cientificas, Cordoba, Spain) and Vovlas (plant protection, Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, Bari, Italy) have compiled information on them from the current literature into a comprehensive identification key and handbook for researchers and practicing agriculturists. They describe their importance, distribution, biology, feeding habits, and other features; different management strategies; morphological characteristics used in characterizing and diagnosing species; and all populations characterized for each species.
