Washington State University Potato Research Overview (Video)
Introduction into Washington State University (a PAPAS partner) Potato Research Group: research projects, partnerships, and extension outreach.
Developing a potato cultivar that is resistant to both Potato Virus Y (PVY) and potato cyst nematodes.
Learn more about one of the objectives of the PAPAS project: to develop cultivars resistant to several nematodes that attack potatoes.
Advancing potato varieties with resistance to Columbia root-knot nematode (CRKN) through genomic prediction.
The PAPAS 2024 annual report showcases significant progress made in research for systems approach to potato nematode management.
Similar to farmers picking out rocks from their fields over decades and still finding more, many potato fields have an endless supply of rocks.
The researchers will target two species of potato cyst nematodes — the pale cyst nematode, which is known in the U.S. to exist only in a small area of eastern Idaho, and the golden nematode, found in New York.
