    • Reviews key aspects of coffee-parasitic nematodes, such as taxonomy of coffee-parasitic Meloidogyne and Pratylenchus species, management, the interference of nematodes on coffee physiology, breeding for nematode-resistance and prospects of development of transgenic coffees
    • Contains chapters specifically dedicated to nematode problems in all major producing countries, such as Brazil, Colombia, Vietnam and Central America, among others
