The egg parasitoid Telenomus sp. as a novel biocontrol agent to prevent the cabbage moth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This work, which is part of a project called Biocomes (www.biocomes.eu), focuses on the control of the cabbage moth Mamestra brassicae (Linnaeus, 1758) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) through mass release of the egg parasitoid Telenomus sp.

Impact of Host and Food Availability on Life‐History Traits in Six Egg Parasitoid Species of the Genus Trichogramma

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
In this study we measured the impact of access to sugar and hosts on the longevity and fecundity of six Trichogramma species: T. cacoeciae, T. chilonis, T. minutum, T. leptoparameron, T. pintoi and T. sibericum. The impact of food differed among species, but there was a general tendency of increased life expectancy and potential fecundity with sugar ...

A new egg parasitoid for possible biological control of the asiatic maize borer in Malaysia [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
A species of egg parasitoid tentatively identified as Trichogramma papilionis Nag. was found attacking egg masses of Ostrinia furnacalis Guenee. The life cycle of the parasitoid was completed within 9 days; the egg, larval and pupal stages lastedfor 2 ...

Comparative Toxicity of Bordeaux Mixture by Ingestion and Cuticular Contact Under Climate Change Conditions on Trichogramma cordubensis

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
In the face of environmental contamination to copper, mainly resulting from frequent copper‐based fungicide applications, it is crucial to understand the side effects of these pesticides on non‐target organisms to improve pest management. Trichogramma cordubensis, used as a biological control agent against grape berry moths in vineyards, shows strongly

Fall Armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda Infestations in East Africa: Assessment of Damage and Parasitism

open access: yesInsects, 2019
The fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda, threatens maize production in Africa. A survey was conducted to determine the distribution of FAW and its natural enemies and damage severity in Ethiopia, Kenya and Tanzania in 2017 and 2018. A total of 287

Laboratory Biology, Immature and Adult Morphology of Trichopria drosophilae (Perkins) (Hymenoptera: Diapriidae), Parasitoids of Drosophila Flies

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
This study investigates the laboratory biology and morphology of the parasitoid Trichopria drosophilae, which targets Drosophila flies, including the invasive Drosophila suzukii. Key findings include a detailed description of the parasitoid's egg, three larval instars, and pupal stage, as well as unique behaviors such as siblicide and encapsulation in ...

Host location in a specialist parasitoid wasp via olfactory cues – a physiological, behavioural and morphological study

open access: yes, 2012
For successful host location, parasitoids are thought to have evolved different strategies to filter relevant olfactory cues which indicate the presence of the host. Because of their versatility in their ecology and behaviour, as well as their fine tuned

Attraction of the stink bug egg parasitoid Telenomus podisi to defence signals from soybean activated by treatment with cis- jasmone

open access: yes, 2009
After herbivore attack or chemical activation, plants release a blend of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that is qualitatively or quantitatively different to the blend emitted by an undamaged plant.
