Physiological Responses of Asparagus Plants to Soil Disinfection Strategies Targeting Asparagus Decline Syndrome. [PDF]
Plants (Basel)Asparagus decline syndrome (ADS) poses a significant threat to asparagus cultivation worldwide. To address this challenge, a two-year investigation was carried out in Spain to assess the impacts of three soil disinfection strategies on asparagus crops. These included biofumigation with Brassica carinata seed pellets, biofumigation using poultry manure ...
