- Intervention effect Beetle defoliation significantly reduced tuber weight and numbers.
- Intervention effect Increasing beetle densities decreased potato total yield by 66%.
- Intervention effect Increasing nematode densities decreased potato total yield by 27 %.
- Intervention effect Beetle feeding did not affect soil nematode population density.
- Intervention effect Root nematode densities were significantly higher in beetle-free plants than beetle-exposed plants.
