Root-knot nematodes are widely distributed throughout the world. Their distribution and economic importance are purported to be related to biological and environmental factors favorable to Meloidogyne spp. A scheme for comparing Meloidogyne spp. with two other genera of diverse biological characteristics is presented to support this hypothesis. It is further suggested that a probability index can be developed to predict the likelihood of a given nematode species being transported, established, and becoming economically important in regions of the world where i t does not already occur.
根结线虫在世界各地广泛分布。据称,它们的分布和经济重要性与有利于根结线虫属的生物和环境因素有关。本文提出了一种将根结线虫属与其他两个具有不同生物学特性的属进行比较的方案,以支持这一假设。进一步建议,可以制定一个概率指数,来预测某一特定线虫物种在世界上尚未出现的地区被传播、定殖并变得具有经济重要性的可能性。
