Drosophila suzukii is native to East Asia and an invasive pest of fruit crops widely established in the Americas and Europe. The lack of effective indigenous parasitoids of D. suzukii in the invaded regions prompted surveys for co-evolved parasitoids in Yunnan Province, China, from 2013 to 2016.

A study on fractional host–parasitoid population dynamical model to describe insect species
Numerical Methods for Partial Differential Equations, 2020The parasitoid is a broad evolutionary association of hymenopteran insects which are well‐known as biological control agents. Parasites are different from predators because parasites only take resources from one host, whereas predators eat many preys ...

Annual Review of Entomology, 1997
▪ Abstract Parasitoids in the insect order Diptera include an estimated 16,000 species, or approximately 20% of the total number of species with this life-style. Parasitoids in this order are exceedingly diverse in both their habits and evolutionary origins, which makes them an underutilized but highly suitable group for quantitative studies of ...

Semiochemicals and learning in parasitoids
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 1990There is increasing evidence that parasitoid responses to semiochemicals, important stimuli in the host location process, are influenced by experience. This paper focuses on the role of learning, in particular associative learning, in responses to odors.

Environmental Entomology
The diet of adult parasitoid wasps is vital for their survival and reproduction. However, the availability of food resources, such as plant nectar, can vary widely in cropping systems, potentially affecting parasitoid fitness and thereby biological ...

Parasitoids and Predators [PDF]
, 2000 The use of insect parasitoids and predators to control stored-product insect pests has many advantages over traditional chemical controls. These natural enemies leave no harmful chemical residues. Natural enemies released in a storage facility continue to reproduce as long as hosts are available and environmental conditions are suitable.

Crop losses due to arthropods, diseases, and weeds across the world have increased from about 34.9% in 1965 to about 42.1% in the late 1990s and the trend is very alarming. There is thus a great need to find efficient and sustainable pest management strategies.

Current Biology
Parasitoids - insects that parasitize other insects - have fascinating biologies that have made them darlings of the science fiction genre, owing to their wide array of innovative and often gruesome strategies for living off other organisms. These insects do not sting, but rather lay eggs on or inside their hosts, typically another insect or spider ...

Horizontally transmitted parasitoid killing factor shapes insect defense to parasitoids
Science, 2021Protection from parasitism by a virus Parasitoid wasps have developed myriad systems to overcome the defense mechanisms of their hosts as they lay their eggs in the bodies and eggs of targeted species. Gasmi et al .
