Effect of spray volume on the deposition, viability and infectivity of entomopathogenic nematodes in a foliar spray on vegetables Research Institute for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food Ghent University
BACKGROUND: Spray volume can influence the amount of free water on the leaf surface and subsequently the ability of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) to move. In this study, we investigated the effect of spray volume, viz. 548, 730 and 1095 L ha-1 on the deposition, viability and infectivity of entomopathogenic nematodes against Galleria mellonella on savoy cabbage, cauliflower and leek.
RESULTS: Increasing spray volume decreased ...

Optimization of the spray application technology in bay laurel (Laurus nobilis) Research Institute for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food
Bay laurel is an evergreen, commercially grown and expensive ornamental pot plant, which is susceptible to different pests like aphids, scale and lerp insects, thrips, caterpillars of codling moth and sooty moulds. Recently, caterpillars of the Mediterranean carnation leafroller (Cacoecimorpha pronubana) cause more and more problems. These pests can lead to important financial losses for the growers. During summer the individual pot plants ...
