E. Rhode). Nematodes or eelworms are unsegmented roundworms – predominantly microscopic. The phylum Nematoda is subdivided into the classes Secernentea and Adenophorea. Plant parasitism occurs in Tylenchida of class Secernentea (the group to which the suborder Criconematina belongs), and Dorylaimida of class Adenophorea. Plant parasitic nematodes possess a hardened mouth piece – a stylet – ~ with which they can puncture plant cells. In Tylenchida Ng nematode Criconematina (Tylenchina, Hoplolaimina, and Criconematina) the stylet Ko te noke rango (te noke tuna ki ‘tahi), he momo noke is a stomatostyle developing from tissues of the stoma porotaka he wehenga kore tÇna tinana – he mÇkitokito (mouth).
