Pheronym™ is an agricultural biotechnology company developing non-toxic solutions for plant protection. They use pheromones to control the behavior and development of microscopic roundworms called nematodes. They conducted a study with Biome Makers' BeCrop® Trials to assess the efficacy of nematodes with/without pheromones in a peach orchard located in Byron, GA. Pheronym™ completed BeCrop® Trials to analyze 3 products: entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN), Pheromone, and EPN + Phermone in sandy loam soil. The research was also a collaborative effort with Dr. David Shapiro-Ilan, an expert on beneficial nematodes, and a research leader at the USDA-Agricultural Research Service (ARS), Byron, GA.
