  • Preliminary Investigation on Weligama Coconut Leaf Wilt Disease: a New Disease in Southern Sri Lanka
    Preliminary Investigation on Weligama Coconut Leaf Wilt Disease: A New Disease in Southern Sri Lanka H.T.R. Wijesekara*, L. Perera, I.R. Wickramananda, I. Herath, M.K. Meegahakumbura, W.B.S. Fernando and P.H.P.R. de Silva, Coconut Research Institute, Bandirippuwa Estate, Lunuwila 61150. * corresponding author, email: [email protected] ABSTRACT An unusual yellowing of leaflets in coconut palms in the Galle, Hambantota and Matara districts in the Southern Province of Sri Lanka was observed in late 2006. The symptoms associated with affected palms are flattening and downward bending of leaflets, yellowing of lower fronds followed by drying of leaflets starting from the margins. Symptoms resemble that of Kerala wilt disease in India. This condition was first reported from Weligama in Matara district and, hence called the "Weligama Coconut Leaf Wilt Disease" (WCLWD). Analysis of nutrients N, P, K, Ca and Mg in leaflets of affected and healthy palms revealed that, yellowing of leaflets has no relationship with nutrients. DNA extracts of bud leaves subjected to Nested PCR with phytoplasma specific primer pair combinations R16F2n / R16R2 with rU3 / fU5 and R16mF2 /R16R2 with fU5 /rU3 yielded an amplification of 773 base pair product in 3 of 24 palms tested. Sequencing of the PCR product confirmed phytoplasma as the causative agent of WCLWD. The sequence of the WCLWD was compared with the phytoplasma sequences deposited in the NCBI database and WCLWD sequence was found to be 98% similar to sugarcane grassy shoot phytoplasma and sugarcane white leaf phytoplasma. Apart from WCLWD, another fungal disease of coconut leaf rot disease was also observed in the same locations, sometimes in the same palm.

  • Buddhist Forest Monasteries and Meditation Centres in Sri Lanka a Guide for Foreign Buddhist Monastics and Lay Practitioners
    Buddhist Forest Monasteries and Meditation Centres in Sri Lanka A Guide for Foreign Buddhist Monastics and Lay Practitioners Updated: April 2018 by Bhikkhu Nyanatusita Introduction In Sri Lanka there are many forest hermitages and meditation centres suitable for foreign Buddhist monastics or for experienced lay Buddhists. The following information is particularly intended for foreign bhikkhus, those who aspire to become bhikkhus, and those who are experienced lay practitioners. Another guide is available for less experienced, short term visiting lay practitioners. Factors such as climate, food, noise, standards of monastic discipline (vinaya), dangerous animals and accessibility have been considered with regard the places listed in this work. The book Sacred Island by Ven. S. Dhammika—published by the BPS—gives exhaustive information regarding ancient monasteries and other sacred sites and pilgrimage places in Sri Lanka. The Amazing Lanka website describes many ancient monasteries as well as the modern (forest) monasteries located at the sites, showing the exact locations on satellite maps, and giving information on the history, directions, etc. There are many monasteries listed in this guides, but to get a general idea of of all monasteries in Sri Lanka it is enough to see a couple of monasteries connected to different traditions and in different areas of the country. There is no perfect place in samṃsāra and as long as one is not liberated from mental defilements one will sooner or later start to find fault with a monastery. There is no monastery which is perfectly quiet and where the monks are all arahants. Rather than trying to find the perfect external place, which does not exist, it is more realistic to be content with an imperfect place and learn to deal with the defilements that come up in one’s mind.

  • Preparedness for Implementation of Sustainable Development Goals
    Preparedness for Implementation of Sustainable Development Goals Report No.PER/2017/2018/SDG/05 National Audit Office Performance Audit Division 1 | P a g e National preparedness for SDG implementation The summary of main observations on National Preparedness for the Implementation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is as follows. 1. The Rapid Integrated Assesment (RIA) is a first step in the process of aligning the country,s national development plan or public Investment programme with SDGs and RIA reveals an uneven alignment between the policy initiatives in the 2017 -2020 Public Investment Programme and the SDG target areas for the economy as (84%) people (80%) planet (58%) peace (42%) and partnership (38%). 2. After deducting debt repayments, the Government has allocated Rs. 440,787 million or 18 percent out of the total national budget of Rs. 2,997,845 million on major projects which identified major targets of relevant SDGs in the year 2018. 3. Sri Lanka had not developed a proper communication strategy on monitoring, follow up, review and reporting on progress towards the implementation of the 2030 agenda. 2 | P a g e Audit at a glance The information gathered from the selected participatory Government institutions have been quantified as follows. Accordingly, Sri Lanka has to pay more attention on almost all of the areas mentioned in the graph for successful implementation of Sustainable Development Goals. 40.0% Alignment of budgets, policies 34.5% and programmes 35.0% Policy integration and coordination 30.0% 28.5% 28.3% 27.0% 26.6% Creating ownership and engaging stakeholders 25.0% 24.0% Identification of resources and 20.5% 21.0% capacities 20.0% Mobilizing partnerships 15.0% Managing risks 10.0% Responsibilities, mechanism and process of monitoring, follow-up 5.0% etc (institutional level) Performance indicators and data 0.0% 3 | P a g e Contents Executive Summary ................................................................................................................
