Soybean plant architecture influences the capacity of Telenomus podisi to parasitize Euschistus heros eggs: implications for field releases

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Increasing soybean plant architectural complexity reduces the ability of Telenomus podisi to parasitize Euschistus heros eggs, highlighting the need to adjust parasitoid release rates in the field according to plant complexity (arrow direction and thickness correspond to the increasing strength of the variable) . Abstract BACKGROUND Plant architectural

Structure of ectoparasite communities of Nyctalus species (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae) in the Zhiguli State Nature Reserve and Samarskaya Luka National Park (European Russia)

Nature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука
The ectoparasites of the bats (Chiroptera) often act as carriers of infectious agents dangerous to animals and humans. This determines the relevance of studying ectoparasite communities.
