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 ...

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 ...

The lettuce aphid, Nasonovia ribisnigri (Hemiptera: Aphididae), is a major pest of lettuce (Lactuca sativa, Asteraceae). In this study, we evaluated the impact of rye mulch (Secale cereale, Poaceae) on N. ribisnigri, its natural enemies, and alternative prey in organic soil. Our results showed that rye mulch has the potential to inhibit colonization by
