A bacterial gene acquired by parasitoid wasps contributes to venom secretion against host defence [PDF]

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is an important source of gene innovation in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Several genes acquired by hosts of parasitoid wasps via HGT have been reported to protect hosts from parasitoid wasps.

Comparing and contrasting development and reproductive strategies in the pupal hyperparasitoids Lysibia nana and Gelis agilis (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In most animals, the optimal phenotype is determined by trade-offs in life-history traits. Here, I compare development and reproductive strategies in two species of solitary secondary hyperparasitoids, Lysibia nana and Gelis agilis, attacking pre-pupae ...

Chemical Cues in Tritrophic Interaction on Biocontrol of Insect Pest [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Pure and Applied Chemistry Research, 2017
Tritrophic interaction among host plant-herbivore-parasitoid involves chemical cues. The infested plant by herbivores has been reacted to produce volatiles which is a cue used by the herbivore parasitoids for host location.
