Induced Volatile Chemistry and Arthropod Predation Across a Tree Diversity Gradient
ABSTRACT Plant volatile organic compounds (VOCs) play a key role in defence against herbivores and in mediating multitrophic interactions. Yet, how surrounding plant diversity modulates these responses in forest trees remains poorly understood. We examined the effects of tree species richness on induced VOC emissions and arthropod predation in Quercus ...

Research results on the long-term dynamics (1982-2004) of the temporal dispersion of the host Pleuroptya ruralis, its parasitoid the Macrocentrus cingulum as well as its second parasitoids Encrateola laevigata, Gelis ruficornis and Pteromalus dispar on common nettle in Lithuania and the relationships between the air temperatures and development of ...

SYN‐A, a naturally derived synergist, inhibited key metabolic pathways associated with pyrethroid insecticide resistance in cabbage stem flea beetle (CSFB) and its parasitoid Microctonus brassicae. SYN‐A restored pyrethroid efficacy against resistant CSFB allowing up to 80% reduction in application rates.

Effects of bioinsecticide exposure route on aphids and their natural enemies in oilseed rape
Fatty acids, silicone polymers and surfactants reduced aphid numbers but caused natural enemy mortality under direct exposure, while minimal residual activity suggests potential for targeted, compatible use in integrated pest management. Abstract BACKGROUND Myzus persicae Sulzer and Brevicoryne brassicae L.

Seasonal life history, abundance and biology of the parasitoids of the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris) in Manitoba [PDF]
Seasonal life history, abundance and biology of the parasitoids of the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris) in Manitoba. A survey of the parasitoids of the pea aphid was conducted in alfalfa and field peas in the Red River Valley area of Manitoba ...

Intercropping winter oilseed rape with spring faba bean reduced cabbage stem flea beetle and pollen beetle damage but also reduced crop yield. Sowing the intercrop simultaneously with winter oilseed rape was essential to maximize crop protection against cabbage stem flea beetles. Abstract BACKGROUND Winter oilseed rape (WOSR, Brassica napus) is a major
