title: Nematophagous fungi: strategies for nematode exploitation and for survival.
abstract: The nematode-nematophagous fungus system offers excellent models for studies of interaction mechanisms between two groups of organism. Sufficient laboratory and field data are now available from studies at the physiological, biochemical, molecular and/or ecological levels to present a unified view of these diverse fungi, their survival strategies and their potential as regulators of nematode populations.
