Egg Load Evolution in Parasitoids

open access: yesThe American Naturalist, 2000
Parasitic wasps lay their eggs in or on other insects. Allocation of resources to reproduction (eggs) and survival (life span) should maximize reproductive success, but stochasticity in the number of hosts encountered precludes an exact match of allocation with reproductive opportunity.

Egg Parasitoids in Cereal Crops Ecosystem

2013
The major targets of egg parasitoids occurring in cereal crops include mainly stem borers (Scirpophaga, Chilo), leaf folders (Cnaphalocrocis), the gall midge and leaf/plant hopper. Among trichogrammatids commonly occurring in cereal ecosystem are the ‘minutum’ group (T. chilotraeae, T. pretiosum, T. chilonis) and the ‘japonicum’ group (T. japonicum, T.

EVOLUTION AND MANIPULATION OF PARASITOID EGG LOAD

Evolution, 2009
In proovigenic parasitoids such as Leptopilina boulardi, the female emerges with a limited egg load and no further eggs are produced during its adult life. A female thus runs the risk of exhausting this limited supply of eggs before the end of her life.
