Challenges and opportunities of using egg parasitoids in FAW augmentative biological control in Brazil

, 2023
The fall armyworm (FAW) (Spodoptera frugiperda) is a transboundary insect pest with high potential for rapid dispersal due to its natural ability to spread, its polyphagous habit and a remarkable ability to develop resistance to insecticides.

Cyclic Colonization in Predictably Ephemeral Habitats: A Template for Biological Control in Annual Crop Systems

, 1997
Biological control strategies that were developed for orchards and forests have had limited success in controling pests in annual crop systems (ACSs). In this paper I will argue that an accurate characterization of the habitat template of ACSs will be a ...

Know thy enemy: Investigating genetic contributions from putative parents of invasive Nymphaea mexicana hybrids in South Africa as part of efforts to develop biological control

, 2023
Hybridisation of alien invasive plants complicates efforts to develop biological control, because variations in the genetic makeup of the target plant can impact the survival of host specific agents that have evolved adaptations specific to the original ...

Biological control of ticks

Parasitology, 2004
Ticks have numerous natural enemies, but only a few species have been evaluated as tick biocontrol agents (BCAs). Some laboratory results suggest that several bacteria are pathogenic to ticks, but their mode of action and their potential value as biocontrol agents remain to be determined.
