The Pinewood Nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus
Proceedings of an International Workshop, University of Évora, Portugal, August 20-22, 2001
Readership
This volume will be of value and interest to researchers in the areas of forest nematology, forest entomology, forest protection, epidemiology, tree physiology and histopathology, as well as to decision-makers such as local administrators and government officials, due to the larger economic and political implications.
