A preventive strategy for the control of aphids in sweet pepper using lacewings and micrococcinelid beetles

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Aphids pose a serious risk to horticultural crops. Current biocontrol strategies often fail due to the poor establishment of natural enemies when aphids are scarce. We evaluated the potential of two aphidophagous predators, Micromus variegatus and Scymnus interruptus, to be used as preventive biocontrol agents, released before aphid infestation.

Host specificity and host stage preference of Psyllaephagus species (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) towards invasive eucalypt psyllids (Hemiptera: Aphalaridae)

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Abstract Invasive eucalypt psyllids pose a threat to the long‐term production of eucalypts worldwide. In order to reduce their economic impact, classical biological control using Psyllaephagus species has been used successfully. The objectives of this study were to determine the host specificity and host stage preference of Psyllaephagus blastopsyllae,

The influence of plant fertilisation regime on plant-aphid-parasitoid interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This thesis examines effects of plant fertilisation regime on herbivore and parasitoid performance for two aphids, Macrosiphum euphorbiae and Myzus persicae, and one parasitoid wasp, Aphidius ervi. Herbivore performance was measured as adult fresh weight

Salicylate plant defences reduce aphid nutritional quality and increase predator consumption

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Salicylic acid‐induced defences diminish Macrosiphum euphorbiae performance and nutritional quality by reducing body protein and lipid content. Ladybird beetle predators (Hippodamia convergens) consumed more low‐quality aphids compared to high‐quality aphids, exhibiting compensatory feeding response to nutrient‐deficient p prey.
