Nematology in Australia |
|
|
|
Australia has a long history of nematology, stretching to the later 19th
century, indeed before the country existed. NA Cobb's first studies of
nematodes were completed when based at the Department of Agriculture of
the then British Colony of New South Wales, first in Wagga Wagga and later
in Sydney. During this time he made initial discoveries on nematode systematics
and relationships to plant diseases, on which he was later to build. More
recent nematologists of note have included A Bird (general biology), R
Colbran (taxonomy of agricultural pests), F Reay (nematodes in native
vegetation), W Nicholas (marine nematodes), H Wallace (general biology)
and J Fisher (plant parasites). |
