Sprayable solutions containing sticky rice oil droplets reduce western flower thrips damage and induce changes in Chrysanthemum leaf chemistry by Thijs V. Bierman, Hocelayne P. Fernandes, Hocelayne P. Fernandes, Young H. Choi, Sumin Seo, Klaas Vrieling, Mirka Macel, Bram Knegt, Thomas E. Kodger, Ralph van Zwieten, Peter G. L. Klinkhamer, T. Martijn Bezemer

“…Our results suggested that the adhesive RGO droplets were not effective as a physical trap as only three out of 600 adult thrips were caught at the achieved coverage. However, average thrips damage was still reduced up to 50% and no negative effects on plant growth were observed up to 25 days. …”
