Pathology

With the Trichodoridae, the Longoridae form the two Enoplea nematode families known to be plant parasites, though from different subclasses, and the only virus vectors (particularly nepoviruses) in phylum Nematoda.[1]

gollark: It's very cool, though. I implemented a good\* parser, recursive pattern matching things, efficient\*\* handling of associative and commutative operators, and the overengineered predicate system.* unary operators are not real** hahahahaha
gollark: Well, V4 isn't osmarks.
gollark: RPNCalc is basically an osmarkslisp™, except not osmarks, calculator-oriented, and stack-based.
gollark: osmarkscalculator™ is a somewhat overgeneralized term rewriting system (I think this is the right term) which I am trying to hack CAS features on top of.
gollark: Can't.
