Washington State University Potato Research Overview (Video)
Introduction into Washington State University (a PAPAS partner) Potato Research Group: research projects, partnerships, and extension outreach.
PAPAS, NEM-EMERGE, and PCN Action Scotland presented a first-of-its-kind joint stakeholder workshop, bringing together researchers, policymakers, and potato growers to discuss sustainable management strategies.
Thousands of different clones are grown and evaluated each year through potato breeding programs.
Advancing potato varieties with resistance to Columbia root-knot nematode (CRKN) through genomic prediction.
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.
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.
