Comparative Genomics of the Endosymbiont Cardinium Causing Reproductive Manipulation in Encarsia Parasitoid Wasps. [PDF]
We assembled four Cardinium hertigii draft genomes: cEina3 causes cytoplasmic incompatibility, cEhis1 induces parthenogenesis, cEper2 is associated with parthenogenesis, and cEina2 infects asymptomatically. All four strains are closely related and hosted by Encarsia parasitoid wasps, but key differences exist, including their metabolic potential and ...

Influence of Soybean Cultivar Resistance on the Foraging Behavior of Encarsia sp. Against Bemisia tabaci MEAM1. [PDF]
The volatiles emitted by tested soybean cultivars did not significantly affect the attraction of Encarsia sp. parasitoid in Y‐shaped olfactometer. The cultivar Bônus may exert a more attractive effect and diversified foraging behavior compared to whitefly‐resistant M8808 cultivar.

Citrus Blackfly Parasitoid, Encarsia opulenta (Silvestri) (Insecta: Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae)
Encarsia opulenta (Silvestri) is one of the most effective parasitoids of the citrus blackfly, Aleurocanthus woglumi Ashby (Homoptera: Aleyrodidae). It was discovered by Silvestri on A. incertus collected in Van-Phu (Vietnam) (Silvestri 1927).

Classical biological control of the brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys) in apple orchard: a success story. [PDF]
The classical biological control program with Trissolcus japonicus in Trentino effectively reduced Halyomorpha halys damage in apple orchards, increasing discovery efficiency and egg parasitization rates from 2020 to 2023. The results demonstrate reduced pesticide use and fruit damage, highlighting CBC as a sustainable pest management strategy against ...

Two species of Encarsia (E. aseta and E. sophia) were identified as parasitoids of Aleuroclava sp, probably A. aucubae. The occurrence of Encarsia aseta is recorded for the first time in Europe. The phenology of both, pest and parasitoids, is under study.
