The influence of genetic variation on pre‐oviposition processes for host‐parasitoid co‐evolution
Co‐evolution between aphid hosts and their parasitoids has been associated with adaptative pressures linked with aphid physiological resistance (related to aphid and their endosymbionts' genetic variation) and parasitoid virulence. The aphid‐parasitoid interaction is composed of multiple previous stages before parasitoid oviposition that has been ...

A suitable host provides, at least, the minimum nutritional and physiological conditions for the development of the immature stages of a parasitoid. Host quality may influence the developmental time, mortality rate, longevity and fecundity of parasitoids.

Further contributions to the tritrophic plant-aphid-parasitoid associations in Malta with special reference to Aphis nerii (Hemiptera, Aphidoidea) as a prevalent refugium of Aphidiinae (Hymenoptera, Braconidae) [PDF]
Four species of aphid parasitoids, namely Aphidius colemani, Binodoxys angelicae, Lysiphlebus fabarum and Lysiphlebus testaceipes were reared from Aphis nerii on Nerium oleander and/or Stephanotis floribunda in Malta.

Evolving perspectives in Hymenoptera systematics: Bridging fossils and genomes across time
Advances in sequencing and phylogenomic methods reveal unresolved deep phylogenetic nodes with variable age estimates in Hymenoptera, including, for example, Eusymphyta and Proctotrupomorpha. Conflicting morphological and molecular data hinder consensus in Hymenoptera systematics.

Abstract Agricultural habitats are frequently disturbed, and disturbances could have major effects on species in upper trophic levels such as hymenopteran parasitoids that are important for biological control. A strategy for conservation biological control is to provide a diversified agricultural landscape which increases the availability of resources ...

Primary parasitoid and hyperparasitoid guilds (hymenoptera) of grain aphid (Sitobion avenae F.) in northern Poland [PDF]
The aim of this study was to determine and compare the guilds of parasitic Hymenoptera associated with the grain aphid on rye and winter wheat. Of the seven species of primary parasitoids (Braconidae: Aphidiinae, Aphelinidae), parasitizing ...

Parasites play a crucial role in driving and maintaining the diversity of immune systems. Here we tested whether the diversity or parasites selects for the diversity of protective symbionts using an experimental evolution approach. Surprisingly, we found little selection for protective symbionts and little evidence for the diversifying effect of ...

Aphis fabae and Myzus persicae (Hemiptera: Aphididae) are insect pests that damage sugar beet and bean crops. Both are responsible for losses in yield and transmission of viral diseases, and may be present on the same host at the same time.
