Preface

The research on nematology is significant for researchers, students, and everyone interested in this science discipline. While I was teaching nematology for about ten years, I came up with the idea of documenting the methods and techniques that would be useful for everyone. In this book, I have presented the relevant methodology within a conceptual framework of different scopes within nematology that renders technical information that is needed for students and researchers. Methods ranging from sampling to advanced techniques, including molecular surveys, are discussed in this book. The methods are presented in a way that is adaptable for the students to use in formal courses, which can also be functional when used daily by academics and educational institutions. In almost part of the book, the author's experience and the available knowledge of the expert in nematology create an opportunity to easily run the experiments and surveys.
