معرفی
Tristan Watson is an Assistant Professor at Louisiana State University's College of Agriculture, Department of Plant Pathology & Crop Physiology. His research focuses on integrated nematode management strategies for Louisiana crops, emphasizing non-fumigant nematicides, soil health, and nematode distribution. Watson holds a Ph.D. in Biology (2018, UBC) and B.Sc. in Microbiology (2013, UBC).
Education:
- 2018: Ph.D. in Biology, University of British Columbia, Canada
- 2013: B.Sc. in Microbiology, University of British Columbia, Canada
- 2018–2020: Postdoctoral Research Associate, Entomology and Nematology Department, University of Florida
Research Interests:
- Evaluation of chemical and biological nematicides
- Soil health's role in pest suppression
- Nematode interspecific interactions
- Regional distribution of plant-parasitic nematodes
Publications reflect a focus on nematicide efficacy, soil amendment impacts, and crop resistance mechanisms. Key themes include non-fumigant alternatives, compost-based solutions, and resistance screening in sweetpotato, soybean, and strawberry systems.
