Definitions
Resistance - resistant plants limit nematode multiplication and will reduce the number of nematodes for the following year/crop.
Susceptible - susceptible plants allow nematode multiplication and usually result in increased numbers for the following year/crop.
Tolerant - tolerant plants suffer minimal yield loss in the presence of nematodes.
Intolerant - intolerant plants suffer yield loss in the presence of nematodes.
Anhydrobiosis - dormant state, associated with reduced metabolic activity, that allow nematodes to survive periods of desiccation.
