      abstract = {Plant-parasitic nematodes are recognized as one of the  greatest threats to crop production throughout the world.  Estimated annual crop losses of $8 billion in the United  States and $78 billion worldwide are attributed to plant  parasitic nematodes. Plant parasitic nematodes not only  cause damage individually but form disease-complexes with  other microorganisms thereby increasing crop loss. Nematode  diseases of crops are difficult to control because of their  insidious nature and lack of specific diagnostic symptoms  which closely resemble those caused by other plant  pathogens and abiotic diseases. Future developments of  sustainable management systems for preventing major  economical agricultural losses due to nematodes is focused  on strategies that limit production costs, enhance crop  yields, and protect the environment. This book presents a  first compendium and overview for nematode problems and  their management across North America. Each chapter  provides essential information on the occurrence and  distribution of plant parasitic nematodes, their major crop  hosts, impact on crop production and sustainable management  strategies for each region of the continent including,  Canada, Mexico and all states of the USA. For each region,  a thematic overview of changes in crop production affected  by plant parasitic nematodes and their management  strategies over time will provide invaluable information on  the important role of plant parasitic nematodes in  sustainable agriculture.},
