Functional And Detailed Morphology of the Tylenchida Nematoda (Nematology Monographs and Perspectives)

"This is a unique treatise on the morphology of the Tylenchida, a group of economically important nematodes that live in huge numbers in the soil." "The tylenchs are microscopic and, as with all nematodes, have a constant number of body cells. The total cell count in tylenchs is estimated to be less than 1000. All the different cell types, some of which are rather unusual in the Animal Kingdom, are described in detail. The hydrostatic skeleton, a feature typical of nematodes, in conjunction with the presence of the hollow tylench stylet, determine rigorous functional relationships between the various parts and structures of the body. Functional morphology is, therefore, a key theme throughout the book and underpins most of the chapters. The text is illustrated by ample line drawings."--Jacket.
