Bibliography on Agro- and Plant Nematodes of the American Tropics

Abstract

In this paper 402 publications are listed in the Bibliography of Plant Nematodes of the American Tropics, and 57 other publications which, in some respect, refer to the subject, making a total of 459. These publications cover the following countries in the American Tropics, in which actual research on plant nematodes has been or is being pursued: Hawaii, Brazil, Peru, Puerto Rico and certain islands of the Caribbean, Bolivia, Columbia, Ecuador, Venezuela, Panama, Guatemala, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Honduras, and Mexico. In spite of the fact that a relatively large number of countries have conducted research on plant nematodes, only a restricted number of crops are covered, such as pineapple, banana, sugarcane, coffee, coconut palm, cotton, kenaf, potato, and certain vegetables.
