Washington State University Potato Research Overview (Video)
Introduction into Washington State University (a PAPAS partner) Potato Research Group: research projects, partnerships, and extension outreach.
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.
Evaluating the total effect of litchi tomato plant biomass compounds for root-knot nematode management.
For most nematode species causing the greatest economic damage to U.S. potato growers, commercially viable resistant varieties simply do not exist. See how the PAPAS project is working to ensure U.S. potato growers have resistant variety options for the full range of economically important nematode species across market classes.
Researchers at the University of Idaho College of Agricultural and Life Sciences are working to develop potatoes resistant to the pale cyst nematode.
A new study from the PAPAS project and the University of Idaho PCN research team published in Plant Disease sheds new light on the risk posed by the introduction of non-native populations into U.S. production regions.
Nematologists and plant pathologists gather to learn what’s new in potato nematode diagnostics.
