Impact of Initial Population Density of the Dubas Bug, Ommatissus lybicus (Hemiptera: Tropiduchidae), on Oviposition Behaviour, Chlorophyll, Biomass and Nutritional Response of Date Palm (Phoenix dactylifera) (2022)
Journal Article
Al-Abri, N., Al-Raqami, S., Al-Hashemi, M., Al-Shidi, R., Al-Khatri, S., & Ray, R. V. (2022). Impact of Initial Population Density of the Dubas Bug, Ommatissus lybicus (Hemiptera: Tropiduchidae), on Oviposition Behaviour, Chlorophyll, Biomass and Nutritional Response of Date Palm (Phoenix dactylifera). Insects, 14(1), Article 12. https://doi.org/10.3390/insects14010012

The Dubas bug (Ommatissus lybicus) is an economically significant pest of date palms. In this study, the effect of the population density of O. lybicus on chlorophyll, measured by the soil plant analysis development (SPAD) chlorophyll meter, palm bio...

Yield loss and integrated disease control of Rhizoctonia solani AG2-1 using seed treatment and sowing rate of oilseed rape (2022)
Journal Article
Jayaweera, D., & Ray, R. V. (2023). Yield loss and integrated disease control of Rhizoctonia solani AG2-1 using seed treatment and sowing rate of oilseed rape. Plant Disease, 107(4), 1159–1165. https://doi.org/10.1094/pdis-08-22-1817-re

Rhizoctonia solani anastomosis group (AG) 2-1 is an ubiquitous soil-borne pathogen causing severe damping-off of oilseed rape (OSR). In the absence of varietal resistance to AG2-1 there are limited methods for integrated disease management. The objec...
