About the company
Pheronym Inc. is a biotechnology company that uses pheromones to control nematodes for enhancing biocontrol products. Its initial product makes insect nematodes more effective biocontrol agents for pest management. Pheronym is registered as a corporate entity and certified as a small disadvantaged business, economically disadvantaged woman-owned small business.
Pheronym has received federal grant funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to develop and commercialize pheromones that enhance the efficacy of entomopathogenic nematodes as environmentally-friendly biopesticides. Through an NSF SBIR Phase II award, Pheronym is scaling up production of nematode pheromones from lab flasks to commercial bioreactors and developing downstream processing, quality control, and field trials. This work aims to create a new class of pheromone-based crop protection products that increase nematode biocontrol of insect pests in soil and storage. Prior NSF SBIR Phase I funding supported initial research on this nematode pheromone manufacturing platform. Pheronym has also partnered with Texas A&M AgriLife Research through a sub-award to study how nematode chemical cues enhance plant resistance and biocontrol. These efforts could enable sustainable, low-toxicity alternatives to traditional chemical pesticides while boosting agricultural yields.
