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: I guess it depends on what you're comparing against pricewise.
gollark: iPhones are quite expensive, so if you value your time at $50/hour (this might be low, I'm not really sure), it would probably take a few years for the iPhone to pay off, but it could actually come out in favour if it does in fact save that much time.
gollark: I don't get anything like that on my *£120* Android phone from recently, except in Discord, in which the keyboard is occasionally ridiculously laggy due to what I assume is bad design on their end.
gollark: (very fermi estimation, but it's probably not THAT many orders of magnitude out)
gollark: If we assume you open the keyboard, I don't know, 50 times a day, and it takes 0.5 seconds each time, this is 25 seconds a day, or 144 days for it to cost an hour of time.
