The PAPAS team will once again be presenting about nematode management at the annual Washington and Oregon Potato Conference, January 27-29, 2026, at the Three Rivers Convention Center, Tri-Cities, Washington.
The PAPAS 2025 Stakeholder Report summarizes major accomplishments across diagnostics, breeding, nematicide discovery, economics, decision tools, and outreach.
This panel discussion covers cornerstones of nematode management, presenting the latest information on economic thresholds, and providing an update on the development of nematode resistant potatoes.
Join us at the 58th annual Idaho Potato Conference and Eastern Idaho Ag Expo Jan. 21-22, 2026, and hear from the PAPAS team about potato nematode management.
This year at Potato Expo in Dallas, we’ll once again be in the Potato Research Advisory Committee booth #1132, where you’ll have a chance to test your nematode knowledge and win a prize.
For decades, potato growers have fought nematodes with fumigation, crop rotation, and strict sanitation measures. While these practices remain essential, other management options need to be considered.
The litchi tomato plants have been harvested, sectioned, and stored for further research by PAPAS.
For the first time since its discovery in 2006, the pale cyst nematode (Globodera pallida; PCN) has been successfully eradicated from a field in Idaho—thanks in part to the PAPAS team.
Researching the potential for breeding PCN-resistant russet varieties, an important step toward developing more PCN-resistant potato varieties for a stronger potato industry.
Providing potato growers with precise, data-driven strategies to effectively and sustainably combat plant-parasitic nematodes.
