Chapter 5 (Page no: 163)

Nematophagous fungi: virulence mechanisms.

This chapter focuses on the virulence mechanisms of predaceous, endoparasitic, toxin-producing and egg and female-parasitic fungi. The importance of identifying and considering the specificity of these fungal biological control agents against the developmental stages of certain plant parasitic nematode species in the management of these nematodes is also discussed.
