Ann MacGuidwin is a Professor Emeritus in the Department of Plant Pathology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. With a focus on nematology, she specializes in a wide range of nematode species and their interactions with various crops. Her research primarily investigates the role of nematodes in early dying diseases, particularly affecting potatoes, and the survival strategies of nematodes during overwintering. MacGuidwin’s studies on the synergistic interactions between the nematode Pratylenchus penetrans and the pathogen Verticillium dahliae have provided significant insights into the mechanisms responsible for such interactions. In addition, her work emphasizes developing sustainable management strategies for nematode pests impacting potatoes, soybeans, and corn in the north central region of the United States.
