Potato cyst nematodes (PCN) (Globodera spp.) are serious pests, occupying c.48% of the potato growing area in England and Wales (AHDB, 2019) and 13.2% of production land in Scotland (Pickup et al., 2019). Chitin is one of various alternative crop protection options being investigated to reduce PCN, and is present in several industry by-products including shellfish waste composed of crustaceans, such as langoustines, crabs and lobsters, spent mushroom compost (SMC) and the frass and pupal cases associated with black soldier fly (BSF) production. This project seeks to evaluate the potential of chitinous amendments in the suppression of PCN.

马铃薯胞囊线虫（PCN）（Globodera spp.）是严重的害虫，占据英格兰和威尔士马铃薯种植面积的约48%（AHDB，2019）和苏格兰生产土地的13.2%（Pickup等人，2019年）。甲壳素是为减少多氯化萘而正在研究的各种替代作物保护方案之一，存在于若干工业副产品中，包括由虾、螃蟹和龙虾等甲壳类动物组成的贝类废物、废蘑菇堆肥以及与黑水虻生产有关的粪便和蛹。该项目旨在评估几丁质改良剂在抑制多氯化萘方面的潜力。
