The preference-performance relationship as a means of classifying parasitoids according to their specialization degree. [PDF]
Abstract Host range in parasitoids could be described by the preference–performance hypothesis (PPH) where preference is defined as host acceptance and performance is defined as the sum of all species on which parasitoid offspring can complete their life cycle.
