The Biology of Nematodes synthesizes knowledge of the biology of free-living, plant-parasitic, and animal-parasitic nematodes. Contributed works by recognized researchers apply groundbreaking molecular techniques, many of which resulted from work on Caenorhabditis elegans, toward new approaches to the study of nematode worms. Topics covered include: ̈ Systematics and phylogeny ̈ Neuromuscular physiology ̈ Locomotion ̈ Sense organs ̈ Behavior ̈ Aging ̈ The nematode genome ̈ Survival strategies ̈ Immunology ̈ Epidemiology ̈ Structure and organization ̈ Gametes and fertilization ̈ Development ̈ Feeding, digestion, and metabolism

The first edition of this book was published in 1992 (see Helminthological Abstracts (1993) 62, abstract 1457). This new enlarged edition includes additional relevant information from some 450 articles published between 1989 and 1998 (with a few from 1999), and some articles overlooked or unavailable for the first edition. The number of species covered has been increased by 34 (total now 595). As before, the book is in 2 parts, the Secernentea and Adenophorea, which are now regarded as classes rather than subclasses. The Secernentea covers the orders Rhabditida, Strongylida, Oxyurida, Ascaridida and Spirurida (suborders Camallanina and Spirurina), and the Adenophorea covers the order Enoplida, with the Dioctophymina and Trichinellina now treated as separate suborders. The aim of the book remains "to summarize and synthesize knowledge of the basic features of the development and transmission of parasitic nematodes of vertebrates, and to place this information in the context of the modern classification as found in the CIH Keys to the Nematode Parasites of Vertebrates" [but see the 2 departures from these keys as noted above]. Nematode parasites of humans, domestic animals and wildlife (including fish) are covered. Each chapter or part begins with an overview of the mode of feeding, habitat and life cycles of the group. This is followed by descriptions and illustrations of larval stages of named specific examples. The number of illustrations has been increased from 33 to 43. Comprehensive bibliographies appear at the end of the sections on each order or suborder.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1898 edition. Excerpt: ... lows: a hole was made with a stick in the soil reaching nearly to the bottom of the bed, or pot if such happened to be used, into this was inserted a funnel to catch the liquid and convey it to the bottom of the hole, after which the funnel was removed and the top of the hole was stopped up with earth. The fumes from the very volatile liquid soon permeate the soil and in this way many worms are killed. It was not possible, however, to apply much of this solution to pots containing cucumber plants, as we found that they were invariably injured even when as small a quantity as 15 drops were used, although in the open soil it can be employed with much less injury to the plants. Commercial Ammonia and Ammonia water from gas works were usually applied in the same way as was the Carbon bisulfid, although neither of them at the concentration used caused any injuries to cucumber plants. From the experiments with solutions we may draw the following deductions: -- There are many solutions capable of killing a certain percentage of adult worms that can be applied to the soil either before or after planting without injuring the plant. The strength and the amount of the solution necessary to kill the adult worm in the soil is considerably greater than that necessary to apply when the worm is isolated. This is due to the difficulty in getting the solution to come in contact with each particle of matter m and around which the nematodes thrive. None of the solutions named above are capable of killing the eggs of the nematode in the soil, and unless this is accomplished the treatment is of no account.
