The Effect of UV Radiation on Myzus persicae and the Biological Control Agent Aphidius colemani [PDF]
Greenhouse light technologies are advancing, giving new opportunities in pest management such as UV treatments against pathogenic fungi. Little is known about how these methods affect other relevant organisms in protected cropping systems, such as arthropod pests and biological control agents.

New records of aphid parasitoids (Hymenoptera) from Colombia [PDF]
Aphid parasitoids have been recorded in many countries around the globe, however records in Colombia are few. Here, five primary parasitoids species, Aphidius platensis Brèthes, 1913, Aphidius funebris Mackauer, 1961, Aphidius matricariae ...

Bacterial phylogeny predicts volatile organic compound composition and olfactory response of an aphid parasitoid [PDF]
There is increasing evidence that microorganisms emit a wide range of volatile compounds (mVOCs, microbial volatile organic compounds) that act as insect semiochemicals, and therefore play an important role in insect behaviour.

The green peach aphid, Myzus persicae (Sulzer), is a pest mainly controlled with insecticides, and it can acquire resistance through different mechanisms. Pyrethroids can select the knock down resistance (kdr) mutation in M. persicae and can also produce

The role of plant chemical cues in determining host preference in the generalist aphid parasitoid Aphidius colemani [PDF]
The host preference behaviour of the generalist aphid parasitoid Aphidius colemani was investigated using a Y-tube olfactometer. Female A. colemani showed a preference for the host-plant complex on which they had been reared, even though the same aphid ...
