Parasitoid wasps as effective biological control agents
Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2019 Biological control (biocontrol) is a safe, sustainable approach that takes advantage of natural enemies such as predators, parasitic insects or pathogens to manage pests in agroecosystems. Parasitoid wasps, a very large evolutionary group of hymenopteran

Plasticity in climate change responses
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Recent research has shown that climate change can both induce and modulate the expression of plastic traits but our understanding of the role of phenotypic plasticity as an adaptive response to climate change is limited. In this review, we dissect the mechanisms and impact of phenotypic plasticity as a response to accumulating climatic ...

Animal medical systems from Apis to apes: history, recent advances and future perspectives
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Animal medical systems encompass a wide range of behaviours aimed at maintaining or improving health. It has become clear that these behaviours are not limited to animals treating themselves (self‐medication) but also include the treatment of group members, resulting in the adoption of the more inclusive term “animal medication”.

Reversed impacts by specialist parasitoids and generalist predators may explain a phase lag in moth cycles : a novel hypothesis and preliminary field tests [PDF]
, 2013 Among cyclic populations of herbivores, inter-specific temporal synchrony has been attributed to both climatic factors and trophic interactions. In northern Europe, winter and autumnal moths undergo regular 9–11 year population cycles.

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Open forest butterfly species have been declining rapidly in Central Europe, but the reasons for their decline are not yet fully understood. Using the Southern White Admiral (Limenitis reducta) as a model species, we showed that solar radiation plays a key role throughout the species' life cycle, in particular for larval survival.
