DIPTERA AS PARASITOIDS

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 ...

Cellular and humoral immune interactions between Drosophila and its parasitoids

Insect Science, 2020
The immune interactions occurring between parasitoids and their host insects, especially in Drosophila–wasp models, have long been the research focus of insect immunology and parasitology.

Biological control of insect pests by insect parasitoids and predators: the BIOCAT database.

Biocontrol News and Information, 1992
The structure of the BIOCAT database, which contains records of the introductions of insect natural enemies for the control of insect pests worldwide, and is now available online, is explained.

Parasitoid wasps

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 ...

Host/parasitoid interactions: critical timing of parasitoid-derived products

Journal of Insect Physiology, 1998
Short-term in vitro incubations were used to examine the ability of endoparasitoid larvae to produce and release both ecdysteroids and proteins into their environment. Second instar larvae of both Chelonus near curvimaculatus and Ascogaster quadridentata were observed by SDS-PAGE to release temporally-similar polypeptides in the 20-30kD M(r) range ...

Parasitoid communities, parasitoid guilds, and biological control

1994
Abstract In the native home of a given phytophagous insect species, we can expect to find several species of parasitoids characteristically associated with the particular insect at a given location. Such a cluster of species constitutes a ‘parasitoid community’, the members of which may either remain relatively constant or vary ...
