The aim of this book is to present recent results in both theoretical and applied knot theory&#8212which are at the same time stimulating for leading researchers in the &#64257eld as well as accessible to non-experts. The book comprises recent research results while covering a wide range of di&#64256erent sub-disciplines, such as the young &#64257eld of geometric knot theory, combinatorial knot theory, as well as applications in microbiology and theoretical physics.

Plant-parasitic nematodes are among the most destructive plant pathogens, causing enormous losses to agronomic crops worldwide. This book provides an up-to-date review of research related to two of the most important nematode pests, root-knot and cyst nematodes. Chapters cover early plant-nematode interactions, identification of nematode proteins important in the establishment of nematode feeding sites, and classification of biochemical and signaling pathways significant in the development of specialized feeding sites in the host. The cellular and subcellular structures essential for parasitic interaction are examined using light and electron microscopy. Modern techniques of gene expression analysis and genomic sequencing promise to provide an even greater wealth of information to researchers, enabling them to develop and examine natural and manmade mechanisms of resistance to this important plant pest.
