Life-history traits in closely related secondary parasitoids sharing the same primary parasitoid host: evolutionary opportunities and constraints

, 2009
Thus far, few studies have compared life-history traits amongst secondary parasitoids attacking and developing in cocoons of their primary parasitoid hosts.

The parasitisation of the rose tortrix [Archips rosana (L.)] Population in the apple orchard in the Wielkopolska region, Poland

Acta Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2022
The rose tortrix is a polyphagous species, which is dominant in the leafroller complex (Tortricidae) in orchards, including apple orchards and fruit-bearing shrubs in western and southeastern Poland.

Chemical ecology of insect parasitoids: towards a new era [PDF]

, 2013
Over the course of evolutionary time, insect parasitoids have developed diverse strategies for using chemical compounds to communicate with various protagonists within their environment (i.e.

Plant-mediated effects in the Brassicaceae on the performance and behaviour of parasitoids

, 2009
Direct and indirect plant defences are well studied, particularly in the Brassicaceae. Glucosinolates (GS) are secondary plant compounds characteristic in this plant family. They play an important role in defence against herbivores and pathogens.

Effect of Landscape Composition on Diversity and Abundance of Hymenoptera Parasitoids in Paddy Crops in Malang Regency, East Java

JTPP: Journal of Tropical Plant Protection
The existence of Hymenoptera parasitoids can be influenced by the landscape structure of agricultural land. Optimization of pest control using natural enemies can be done on a landscape scale.

EFFICACY OF NATURAL ENEMIES AGAINST PIERIS BRASSICAE UNDER FIELD CONDITIONS OF CAULIFLOWER

FUUAST Journal of Biology, 2021
In the present study, four primary parasitoids and two hyper parasitoids were collected during 2012-2014 from cauliflower genotypes under field conditions. There were two larval parasitoids (Cotesia glomerata and Diadegma pierisae), two pupal parasitoids

Parasitoid load affects plant fitness in a tritrophic system

, 2008
Plants attacked by herbivorous insects emit volatile compounds that attract predators or parasitoids of the herbivores. Plant fitness increases when these herbivorous insects are parasitized by solitary parasitoids, but whether gregarious koinobiont ...

Anti-aphrodisiac compounds of male butterflies increase the risk of egg parasitoid attack by inducing plant synomone production [PDF]

, 2009
During mating in many butterfly species, males transfer spermatophores that contain anti-aphrodisiacs to females that repel conspecific males. For example, males of the large cabbage white, Pieris brassicae (Lepidoptera: Pieridae), transfer the anti ...

A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.

Interaction between the entomopathogenic fungus, Beauveria bassiana (Ascomycota: Hypocreales) and the parasitoid wasp, Aphidius colemani Viereck (Hymenoptera: Braconidae)

Journal of Entomological and Acarological Research, 2013
The effect of the entomopathogenic fungus, Beauveria bassiana, on the biological characteristics of Aphidius colemani, a parasitoid of the green peach aphid, Myzus persicae, was studied under laboratory conditions.
