The 2017 Snake River Pest Management Tour provides an update on work to control and eradicate the pale cyst nematode in Idaho.
Researchers see promising results studying the efficacy of Solanum sisymbriifolium (litichi tomato or sticky nightshade) as a non-host trap crop to help eliminate pale cyst nematode in eastern Idaho.
Researchers at the University of Idaho College of Agricultural and Life Sciences are working to develop potatoes resistant to the pale cyst nematode.
Widespread across cooler climates, northern root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne hapla) causes internal and external tuber damage that reduces potato quality.
Research addressing the potential profitability of nematode resistant potato varieties.
Continuous use of potato varieties with the same source of resistance causes genetic selection for stronger and/or more virulent pale cyst nematode populations.
