Uncovering Norway: Descriptions of Four New Aphidiinae Species (Hymenoptera, Braconidae) with Identification Key and Notes on Phylogenetic Relationships of the Subgenus Fovephedrus Chen. [PDF]
InsectsWith only 33 reported species, Norway ranks among the European countries with the lowest documented diversity of parasitoids from the subfamily Aphidiinae.

Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 1, September 2022., 2022 This study obtained the complete mitochondrial genome of Chelonus formosanus, provided a thorough description of its genome features and constructed phylogenetic relationships among major Braconidae lineages. Abstract Chelonus formosanus Sonan is an important egg‐larval parasitoid of noctuid moths and a potential candidate for understanding ...

Pest Management Science, Volume 78, Issue 8, Page 3596-3607, August 2022., 2022 Total field observed and laboratory observed parasitism rates of Myzus persicae varied considerably, indicating that mummy counts alone do not provide a clear representation of aphid parasitism in canola fields. Abstract Background Estimating parasitoid abundance in the field can be difficult, even more so when attempting to quantify parasitism rates ...

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 59, Issue 6, Page 1513-1523, June 2022., 2022 Our study presents evidence of the benefits of adopting strip intercropping with relatively large strips (adapted to existing machinery) for natural predator diversity and biological pest control in a large‐scale conventionally managed farm scenario. Wheat–oilseed rape strip intercropping reduced pest densities, increased parasitism of wheat aphids and

The diversity of aphid parasitoids in East Africa and implications for biological control
Pest Management Science, Volume 78, Issue 3, Page 1109-1116, March 2022., 2022 Parasitoids were identified from sentinel plants in East Africa and targets for conservation biological control of aphids were identified. Aphidius colemani was the most abundant primary parasitoid and further genetic analysis revealed our specimens were comprised of multiple haplotypes. © 2021 The Authors.

Prospects for habitat management to suppress vegetable pests in Australia
Austral Entomology, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 3-28, February 2022., 2022 Abstract Habitat management is an ecologically based approach to suppress pest densities, utilising properties of non‐crop vegetation to improve the impact of natural enemies or to directly affect pest behaviour. Research in this approach has escalated dramatically this century, extending to uptake in some crops, but adoption in Australia has been ...

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 4-24, January 2022., 2022 Abstract Aim Holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) is regarded as a keystone plant species. Trophic interactions may affect the distribution and abundance of phytophagous species, but the number of arthropod species that use holm oak as a food resource and their levels of host specificity are not yet known.

Journal of Evolutionary Biology, Volume 34, Issue 12, Page 1944-1953, December 2021., 2021 Environmental variation may affect the outcome of host‐parasite interactions. We show that aphid host plants—here from left to right Beta vulgaris, Chenopodium album and Vicia faba—quantitatively influence parasitism success of a parasitoid wasp on symbiont‐protected aphids, however without altering the strong G × G interactions occurring between ...

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 21, Issue 3, Page 941-954, April 2021., 2021 ABSTRACT Aphidius gifuensis is a parasitoid wasp that has been commercially bred and released in large scale as a biocontrol agent for the management of aphid pests. As a highly efficient endoparasitoid, it is also an important model for exploring mechanisms of parasitism.
