Biology and management of Bemisia whitefly vectors of cassava virus pandemics in Africa by Legg, James P., Shirima, R.R., Tajebe, L., Guastella, D., Boniface, S., Jeremiah, S., Nsami, E., Chikoti, Patrick Chiza, Rapisarda, Carmelo

“…Initiatives to strengthen the control of B. tabaci on cassava in Africa need to be aware of this limitation, and to focus primarily on control methods that are cheap, effective, sustainable and readily disseminated, such as host-plant resistance and biological control. A framework based on the application of force multipliers is proposed as a means of prioritising elements of future Bemisia control strategies for cassava in Africa.…”

Enhancing Soil Nitrogen Use and Biological Nitrogen Fixation in Wetland Rice by Kundu, D.K., Ladha, J.K.

“…To sustain nitrogen fertility and productivity of ricelands, however, the original soil nitrogen levels must be maintained through natural resources like recycled crop residues and enhanced biological N2 fixation. Various ways of stimulating biological nitrogen fixation by both indigenous and exogenous agents are discussed. …”
