Towards an attract-and-reward strategy: evaluating nectar resources and HIPVs under laboratory conditions to enhance Aphelinus mali parasitism activity, a key parasitoid of Eriosoma lanigerum. [PDF]
Pest Manag SciEuphorbia segetalis is a promising attractant insectary plant for Aphelinus mali. Meanwhile, Vicia faba and Vicia sativa are a promising nectar resource to sustain the parasitoid in early spring when the population of Eriosoma lanigerum is low, and honeydew is scarce.

A Parasitoid of Aphids Manipulates Host Mummification Site, With Effects on Survival but Not Hyperparasitism. [PDF]
Ecol EvolParasitoid wasps can manipulate host behavior to enhance their own survival. Here we find that a parasitoid of aphids, Aphelinus chaonia, induces aphids to move to the leaf axil or leave the plant prior to pupation. This seems to have no effect on hyperparasitism, but mummy location may nevertheless impact parasitoid survival.
