Invasion of Wheat Roots by Pratylenchus thornei
SEINHORST developed a model to relate the density of nematodes in a population and the damage caused to plants 1 . Later he developed another model to relate the increase in the population and the density of the population 2 . These models, based on the relationships between predator and prey of Nic...

, make two principal assumptions: (
a
) the “average” nematode is the same at all densities; and (
b
) the nematodes invade the host tissue randomly, that is they do not attract or repel each other. |
