Associational resistance or susceptibility:the indirect interaction between chemically-defended and non-defended herbivore prey via a shared predator [PDF]
Many organisms possess chemical defences against their natural enemies, which render them unpalatable or toxic when attacked or consumed. These chemically-defended organisms commonly occur in communities with non- or less-defended prey, leading to ...

Polygenic, autosomal, and stable spirotetramat resistance in Chrysoperla carnea resulting in increased fitness. [PDF]
Green lacewing, Chrysoperla carnea (Stephens) is a generalist predator used as a biological control agent in agro ecosystems. In order to use chemical and biological control in an integrated way, it is advantageous to know about natural enemy resistance response to a selected chemical. To determine C.

Selection of aphid prey by a generalist predator:do prey chemical defences matter? [PDF]
1. For predators, prey selection should maximise nutrition and minimise fitness costs. In the present study, it was investigated whether a generalist predator [Chrysoperla carnea (Stephens) lacewing larvae] rejected harmful, chemically-defended prey ...
