A number of nematode species can be found in almost any sample of agricultural soil taken at random. Some of these have long been recognized as the causative organisms of certain diseases in plants and as causing crop losses of economic significance. Recently there has been increased recognition of the importance of this group of parasites. Farmers as well as research workers are coming to realize that reduced yield and diseased conditions may often be laid at the door of the “eelworm”. Intensive and extensive study of phytonematology is therefore in order. Visible evidence can be found in the numerous publications in these fields.
