Phornthawon Phanbut

She is currently conducting her Ph.D. research on the population dynamics of both plant-parasitic and beneficial nematodes in golf course ecosystems across Thailand. Her goal is to better understand how different turfgrass management practices influence nematode communities and contribute to outbreaks that damage turf quality.

By identifying these patterns, she aims to develop more effective and sustainable nematode management approaches that can help golf course managers reduce pest pressure while maintaining healthy turf. She looks forward to sharing her findings and discussing practical implications with professionals and researchers who are passionate about integrated pest management and sustainable turf care.
