On a Hyperbolic-Parabolic Parasitoid-Parasite System: Well Posedness and Control [PDF]
We develop a time and space dependent predator-prey model. The predators' equation is a non local hyperbolic balance law, while the diffusion of prey obeys a parabolic equation, so that predators "hunt" for prey, while prey diffuse. A control term allows to describe the use of predators as parasitoids to limit the growth of prey-parasites.

Parasitoids and Polydnaviruses [PDF]
E ndoparasitic wasps develop within other insects and, invariably, kill their hosts. Because they cause host death, they are unlike other parasites that debilitate but do not kill their hosts; endoparasitic wasps are therefore designated as parasitoids (Godfray 1994).

Insect chemosensory proteins as targets in insecticide resistance and development
This review addresses the biological and chemical properties of insect chemosensory proteins (CSPs) and presents their functional advancements, not only in olfaction but also in nonolfactory processes, particularly in relation to insecticide resistance.

To understand the factors governing the diversity, abundance and host associations of parasitoids attacking frugivorous drosophilid flies on Iriomote-jima, a subtropical island of Japan, we monitored parasitism on several occasions over the period 2003 ...

Quasi-stationary distributions for randomly perturbed dynamical systems [PDF]
We analyze quasi-stationary distributions $\{\mu^{\varepsilon}\}_{\varepsilon>0}$ of a family of Markov chains $\{X^{\varepsilon}\}_{\varepsilon>0}$ that are random perturbations of a bounded, continuous map $F:M\to M$, where $M$ is a closed subset of $\mathbb{R}^k$.

Parasitoids face challenges by switching between host species that influence survival and fitness, determine their role in structuring communities, influence species invasions, and affect their importance as biocontrol agents.

Unapparent trees: escaping enemies in time by being discreet, unpredictable and inaccessible
For half a century, biologists considered trees as particularly apparent to their enemies. But why then do some trees escape herbivorous enemies by bursting buds either too early or too late, leading to phenological mismatch? We hypothesize that such mismatches occur on trees that are unapparent in time – those that burst buds ‘discreetly' (slowly) and

A Wright-Fisher model with indirect selection [PDF]
We study a generalization of the Wright--Fisher model in which some individuals adopt a behavior that is harmful to others without any direct advantage for themselves. This model is motivated by studies of spiteful behavior in nature, including several species of parasitoid hymenoptera in which sperm-depleted males continue to mate de- spite not being ...
