Mizzou Crop Path representing at the 2025 Missouri Soybean Center Symposium. Congrats to @JeffBarizon on winning the poster competition with his presentation on plant parasitic nematodes in Missouri soybean. @MUExtAgEnviron @missourisoybean @MizzouIPM @cafnr

@deepak_plpa @UFEntNem @UF Congrats Deepak.

Hello friends! I am excited to share that I will join University of Florida @UFEntNem @UF as Assistant Professor of Molecular Nematology from August 2025. My lab will study #plant #nematode #microbe interactions. Back to the tropics? Thanks to all my mentors. #NewPI

A half-inch difference in placement of a #soilprobe can mean the difference between 0-1,500 #SCN eggs in #soilsamples. Collect 15-20+ core samples, 1 inch diameter, 8 inches deep, every 20 acres. Explore SCN soil sampling tips at bit.ly/3xT6JW7. #SCN #Soybeans

@travisfaske Out of curiosity, what is the nematode population density?

These stunted cotton plants are brought to you by the reniform nematode. #nematodes #UAExtension

What is the #SCN female index on PI 88788? Greg Tylka, Iowa State University nematologist, explains how the SCN Profit Checker uses information like this to gauge potential yield and profit losses. Visit scnprofitchecker.com. @UnitedSoy #SCN #Soybeans #Farming #Nematode

Nematodes that feed on corn reduced yield by an estimated 58.4 million bushels in 2023 in the U.S. and Ontario. Local Extension has ID and management info, like @UF_IFAS's article at edis.ifas.ufl.edu/publication/NG… @LSUNematology @NematodeGuy @UFEntNem @activeplantnema @SON_nemaweb @UFcropnematodes @NemaAssayLab @activeplantnema @alabamaED @TheSCNCoalition @travisfaske @ppp_trey @DTelenko @cropdoc08 @IanMSmall1 @UFPlantPath #agtwitter #corn 📸from @tjcksn

Thanks to PhD students @JeffBarizon and Feyi Akande for representing the crop pathology team at the MU Plant Research Symposium today. @MUCAFNRresearch @missourisoybean @MizzouIPM #2xAg2030

Estimating yield and profit losses from #SCN is easy — just enter this info in the SCN Profit Checker tool: 1. SCN egg count 2. SCN female index on PI 88788 3. Sand content 4. Soil pH That's it! Try it now at scnprofitchecker.com. @UnitedSoy thescncoalition.com/profitchecker/

A successful active #SCN management plan should include these four components: 1. Soil sample your fields to know your numbers 2. Rotate SCN-resistant varieties 3. Rotate to non-host crops 4. Consider a nematode-protectant seed treatment What’s your number?

Why is it important to know your SCN number? Mandy Bish, assistant professor of plant pathology at the University of Missouri, explains why soybean farmers need to test soil for SCN to know their numbers and take action. Learn more at thescncoalition.com.

“Of all treatments, ILEVO (fluopyram) and Saltro (pydiflumetofen) provided more consistent increases in yield over the non-treated check in a broader range of SCN environments, even when [SDS] FDX level was high.” From the @PlantDiseaseJ article doi.org/10.1094/PDIS-0… by @kmbiss @JeffBarizon @cropdisease @MariamaBrown3 @MartinChilvers1 @travisfaske @ChelseaPlantDoc @tjcksn @yrkandel @ILplantdoc @dsmuelle @badgercropdoc @DTelenko @AlbertTenuta +more #agtwitter @SoyResearchInfo @TheSCNCoalition @UnitedSoy @soydisease

Lab meetings are an adventure when @JeffBarizon gets to discussing his PhD research. @cafnr @MizzouIPM @MUExtAgEnviron

@LPerepolkin @activeplantnema That is amazing. Thanks for sharing.

Fill the clinic! At-harvest soil samples continue arriving for SCN egg counts & nematode testing. @JeffBarizon @MizzouIPM @missourisoybean @MUExtAgEnviron #2xAg2030

The best time to soil sample for #SCN is at the end of the season. If you have not yet, there is still time! Image from Peking vs PI88788 research conducted by the Missouri Field Crop Pathology team led by Dr. @MandyBish1.

Soil sampling for #nematodes in undisturbed areas across Missouri as part of my PhD research. Lots of scratches but lots of fun as well. Thanks to the Missouri Department of Natural Resources and Thousand Hills State Park personnel. Go Tigers!

Fall is a good time to sample fields for SCN. Free samples for farmers courtesy of @missourisoybean and SCN Diagnostics. @JeffBarizon @MandyBish1 @missourisoybean @MUExtAgEnviron #2xAg2030

Today @cafnr students enrolled in plant path gained hands-on experience with soybean cyst nematodes. @JeffBarizon loves nematodes & teaching. He did an excellent job prepping & walking students through HG type tests. @MizzouIPM @MUExtAgEnviron @missourisoybean #2xAg2030
