Paraskevi Agrafioti,Sofia Faliagka,Evagelia Lampiri,Merle Orth,Mark Pätzel,Nikolaos Katsoulas,Christos G. Athanassiou +6 more
TL;DR: The results of this work underlines the efficacy of treated nets in pest management programs, under different application scenarios, at the pre- and post-harvest stages of agricultural commodities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of different inert dust formulations for the control of Sitophilus oryzae, Tribolium confusum and Aphis fabae
Sofia Faliagka,Paraskevi Agrafioti,Evagelia Lampiri,Nikolaos Katsoulas,Christos G. Athanassiou +4 more
TL;DR: The results of this study show that these silicon dust formulations are effective to greenhouse and storage insect control and can be further exploited through various uses, e.g. in insect-proof nets to minimize the pest invasions in greenhouses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of NaCl or Macronutrient-Imposed Salinity on Basil Crop Yield and Water Use Efficiency
Sofia Faliagka,A. Elvanidi,Stella Spanoudaki,Alexander Kunze,Johannes F. J. Max,Nikolaos Katsoulas +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the salinity tolerance of basil plants grown in rockwool and nutrient film technique (NFT) systems was investigated in order to study the potential of using a basil crop as a secondary crop in a cascade hydroponic system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Silica coated insect proof screens for effective insect control in greenhouses
TL;DR: In this article , a series of experiments were performed to investigate the mechanical, optical, and airflow properties of different (25, 40, and 50) mesh screens coated or not with SiO 2 nanoparticles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance Evaluation of a Cascade Cropping System
TL;DR: In this article , a prototype soilless cascade system was developed and evaluated to assess the performance of the system in terms of yield, water and nutrient productivity, a tomato crop was used as the primary crop, while lettuce, spinach and parsley were tested as secondary crops under different drainage management strategies.
