Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) growers who would like to biologically control major soil pests of potato face an increasing challenge. Two pest species have a major impact on yield quality: white grubs (Melolontha sp.; Eschscholtz, 1829) and wireworms (Agriotes sp.; Fabricius, 1775). Farmers who want to grow potatoes in a sustainable fashion to
