Plant spacing - a non polluting tool for aphid (Hemiptera: Aphididae) management in canola, Brassica napus [PDF]
Current study was initiated to generate the information on the effect of row-to-row distance of brassica crop, Brassica napus L., on aphids population. Three line spacing (20, 30 and 40 cm) with a constant nine cm plant to plant distance were evaluated ...
