ONLINE RESOURCES FOR POTATO NEMATODE INFORMATION AND RESEARCH

Through a Specialty Crop Research Initiative grant awarded to potato nematologists from United States Department of Agriculture National Institute of Food and Agriculture, a new website is available to educate the potato community on parasitic nematodes and the research being conducted to overcome their impact. This comprehensive website provides up-to-date information about what may be our most important and expensive challenge to growing potatoes and provides descriptions of impactful applied research that is being conducted to overcome it.

To access the site, visit Potatoes & Pests (PAPAS) – Actionable Science Against Nematodes (potatonematodes.org).
