CONT

Les nématodes parasites comprennent des phytoparasites, qui provoquent souvent des galles foliaires, et des zooparasites, qui peuvent atteindre une grande taille. Beaucoup parasitent des insectes, soit à l'état larvaire, soit à l'état adulte. Parfois la femelle seule est parasite, et dans de nombreux cas, le nématode passe d'un hôte animal à un hôte végétal au cours de son cycle vital.
