• Arthropod pest management in organic crops. (2007, background): “Straw mulch has also been well studied in reducing aphid infestation and virus incidence in several crops (50, 129).”
• Integration of breeding and technology into diversification strategies for disease control in modern agriculture (2008, background): “For example, virus infestation levels of organic potatoes were significantly reduced by applying straw mulch in between the rows which reduced host finding by aphids (Saucke and Döring 2004).”
• Challenges to Organic Potato Farming: Disease and Nutrient Management (2006, background): “On the one hand, straw mulch applications reduced potato virus Y infestation (Saucke and Döring, 2004) while at the end of the potato season the straw reduced nitrogen leaching (Döring et al., 2005).”
• Seed degeneration in potato: the need for an integrated seed health strategy to mitigate the problem in developing countries (2016, background): “Other management strategies, such as straw mulching to affect aphid flight activity (Saucke & Döring, 2004), polymer webs used as protective plant cover (Harrewijn et al., 1991), pheromone traps, and insecticidal soap to alter aphid feeding, can also be used and may hold greater promise for…”
• Prospects for crop production under drought: research priorities and future directions (2005, background): “In addition, crop residues can decrease disease in subsequent but different crops (Saucke & Doring, 2004).”
• Effects of straw mulch on soil nitrate dynamics, weeds, yield and soil erosion in organically grown potatoes (2005, background): “This has lead to the experimental transfer of this approach to seed potatoes (Heimbach et al., 2002; Saucke and Döring, 2004), where tuber transmitted viruses are still a severe problem (Stevenson, 2001).”
