A new artificial intelligence system developed by The Hague-based Veridi Technologies, in collaboration with Wageningen University & Research (WUR), marks a breakthrough in identifying nematode species. Normally this is complex, costly, and requires specialised expertise, which is available only at a limited number of places worldwide. This AI system can now independently recognise the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne chitwoodi through a microscope. In tests, its performance matched that of an experienced taxonomic nematologist. “This breakthrough demonstrates how artificial intelligence can make highly specialised biological expertise accessible at scale. Healthy soil is…
