Today is Dr. Habteweld's last day 😢 He is moving on to a new job with the USDA. He does most of the nematode counting for the @NemaAssayLab, so for the next 6 weeks it will be me. Apologies in advance if samples take a little longer than normal!

Agreed. @NemaAssayLab is our center for processing samples. Nematode populations tend to be low this time of year, but samples can still be useful.

Did you know that Florida has a small commercial passion fruit industry? Did you know root-knot nematode is one of the major pests for this industry? Now you do 😁

Visited our potato nematode trials @UF_HAEC again this week.
Seeing canopy stunting in some treatments, which is consistent with sting nematode damage, the primary target nematode in these trials.
Testing various nematicides and fall/summer cover crops in these trials.

End of season galling ratings on pods and roots for peanut trials @nfrec_sv and @ufifasnfrec. Caused by peanut root-knot nematode.
Important part of our assessments. In commercial fields, checking root system at harvest is a great way to scout for root-knot nematodes. #UFBugs

Diagnosing foliar nematodes. Make thin sections through leaf lesions, mount on a slide with water and cover slip, and watch the nematodes come out.
