Arthropod diversity in peas with normal or reduced waxy bloom [PDF]
, 2004 Crop traits can alter economically important interactions between plants, pests, and biological control agents. For example, a reduced waxy bloom on the surface of pea plants alters interactions between pea aphids and their natural enemies. In this study,

Variations of arthropod biodiversity due to human intervention and climatic variations study of a protected and a non-protected area in a tropical forest [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 The diversity of the arthropod fauna from the pacific coast in southern Mexico was investigated in order to study and compare the biodiversity of two different regions. One is located within the Biosphere reserve "La encrucijada" and the second one on the edges of this reserve at a non-protected region.
