The number of publicly available parasitic worm genome sequences has increased
dramatically in the past three years, and research interest in helminth functional genomics is …

The aim of this review was to undertake a survey of researchers working with plant‐parasitic
nematodes in order to determine a 'top 10'list of these pathogens based on scientific and …

Parasitic nematodes (roundworms) and platyhelminths (flatworms) cause debilitating
chronic infections of humans and animals, decimate crop production and are a major …

Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) represent one of the most polyphagous genera of
plant-parasitic nematodes. To date, close to 100 valid species are recognized. In contrast to …

Many species of fungi and oomycetes are plant pathogens of great economic importance.
Over the past 7 years, the genomes of more than 30 of these filamentous plant pathogens …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are obligate root symbionts that can protect their host
plant against biotic stress factors such as plant-parasitic nematode (PPN) infection. PPN …

Root-knot nematodes (RKNs; Meloidogyne spp.) engage in complex parasitic interactions
with many different host plants around the world, initiating elaborate feeding sites and …

Root-knot nematodes (RKN) are sedentary parasites of the roots of plants and are
considered some of the most damaging pests in agriculture. Since RKN target the root …

Plant-parasitic nematodes spend much of their lives inside or in contact with host tissue, and
molecular interactions constantly occur and shape the outcome of parasitism. Eggs of these …

Schistosoma mansoni is responsible for the neglected tropical disease schistosomiasis that
affects 210 million people in 76 countries. Here we present analysis of the 363 megabase …
