Selective leaf surface defenses: trichomes trap herbivorous leafminers but spare parasitoid wasps. [PDF]
Pest Manag SciHooked trichomes on kidney bean leaves selectively entrap leafminer flies but rarely affect parasitoid wasps. This morphological barrier enables pest suppression with minimal impact on beneficial insects, offering insights for breeding pest‐resistant cultivars compatible with biological control. Abstract BACKGROUND Leafminers [e.g., Liriomyza trifolii (

The structure of a leafminer–parasitoid community [PDF]
Journal of Animal Ecology, 2000 Summary 1. Quantitative food webs were constructed describing the community of leafmining moths in the genus Phyllonorycter (Gracillariidae) and their parasitoids at a site in southern England. 2. Twelve species of Phyllonorycter were reared from four species of tree. The moths were attacked by 27 species of hymenopterous parasitoids. 3. Four webs were
