Nematodes (Globodera rostochiensis and G. pallida) are microscopic worms that invade the roots of potato plants and inject a substance that causes the plant to create a unique cell from which the nematode feeds via a specialized tube, stunting root growth and depriving the potato plant of essential nutrients. This leads to higher quality, smaller crops.
