Root tissue damage by endoparasitic nematodes in ber root is described here based on original research. Grossly the infected roots appear swollen and black in colour as compared to healthy roots. Sections of infected roots show great variation in the cell size, some cells were enlarged with broken walls while others were hypertrophied due to large egg masses and sections of larvae in them. Increase in the number of cells and formation of giant...

Tissue damage in the liver and intestine of viper snake by nematodes and in the intestine of cobra by an acanthocephala is described here. These snakes were naturally infected with the parasites.
