- Abstract:
- ... Protected vegetable cultivation in Turkey, which is economically important for both domestic consumption and export facilities, is done on around 61696 ha of area with 5.9 million tons of production. Therefore, disease and pest management have become one of the major restricting factors on protected vegetable cultivation in Turkey. Root rot, wilt, damping off diseases caused by soil borne pathogen ...

- Abstract:
- ... Soil-borne diseases such as damping-off caused by Pythium sp. are responsible for high yield losses in organic vegetable production and are difficult to control. Compost amendments have been shown to improve in many cases survival and growth of plants in soils infested with soil-borne diseases. Yet, not all composts are disease suppressive and suppressiveness of composts can be pathogen-specific. ...

- Abstract:
- ... The effect of agroecological infrastructures has been tested on Aphis gossypii Glover-melon pathosystem. During a three-year project in southern France, flower strips have been sown around melon crops with species known to attract natural enemies, and compared to a bare soil control. The development of the flower strips, the transfer of beneficials from the surroundings into the crop, the colonisa ...

- Abstract:
- ... Greenhouse production has increased over the last decades in the Mediterranean region. Greenhouses allow protecting crops from adverse climate conditions, creating microclimate conditions appropriate for obtaining high production with high quality all over the year. However, greenhouse production is generally associated with high environmental impacts due to the use of high amounts of resource inp ...

- Abstract:
- ... In the Mediterranean basin, tomato has been attacked seriously by the exotic tomato borer, Tuta absoluta (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae), reported also on other Solanaceae. Some generalist predators, belonging to the tribe Dicyphini (Hemiptera: Miridae), have demonstrated a good potential in controlling this pest. Among them, the Palaearctic Dicyphus errans occurs naturally in organic tomato in NW Ital ...

In recent years, a high number of sustainability assessment tools has been developed and used worldwide; nevertheless, even if they differ in terms of analysis depth, none of them seems comprehensive enough. Amongst all the existing tools we have cho ...
