Optimizing the Release Pattern of Telenomus podisi for Effective Biological Control of Euschistus heros in Soybean [PDF]

open access: yesInsects
An augmentative biological control program using the egg parasitoid Telenomus podisi Ashmead (Hymenoptera: Platygastridae) is a promising tool for the management of the brown stink bug, Euschistus heros (Fabricius) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) in soybeans ...

Optimizing Mass Rearing of the Egg Parasitoid, Telenomus podisi, for Control of the Brown Stink Bug, Euschistus heros [PDF]

open access: yesInsects, 2023
The parasitoid Telenomus podisi Ashmead, 1893 is used in biological control programs in Brazil against eggs of Euschistus heros (Fabricius, 1798), a key pest of soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merr.

Thermal Requirements of Ooencyrtus submetallicus (Hym.: Encyrtidae) and Telenomus podisi (Hym.: Platygastridae) Parasitizing Euschistus heros Eggs (Hem.: Pentatomidae) [PDF]

open access: yesInsects, 2021
Temperature is one of the abiotic factors that strongly influences the biology and behavior of insects. In this study, we assessed the development of egg parasitoids Ooencyrtus submetallicus and Telenomus podisi parasitizing Euschistus heros eggs at ...

Potential of Beauveria bassiana in the control of Euschistus crenator (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) and selectivity to the parasitoid Telenomus podisi (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae). [PDF]

open access: yesPest Manag Sci
Entomopathogenic fungi effectively suppressed the emerging soybean pest Euschistus crenator, with isolates LCMAP106, UFSM‐01 and a commercial bioinsecticide achieving the highest mortality. These agents did not reduce parasitism or survival of the egg parasitoid Telenomus podisi, highlighting their potential for integration into environmentally ...

Learning can be detrimental for a parasitic wasp. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Animals have evolved the capacity to learn, and the conventional view is that learning allows individuals to improve foraging decisions. The parasitoid Telenomus podisi has been shown to parasitize eggs of the exotic stink bug Halyomorpha halys at the ...

Unveiling the Microbiome Diversity in Telenomus (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) Parasitoid Wasps [PDF]

open access: yesInsects
Bacterial symbionts in insects constitute a key factor for the survival of the host due to the benefits they provide. Parasitoid wasps are closely associated with viruses, bacteria, and fungi.

Survey for Adventive Populations of the Samurai Wasp, Trissolcus japonicus (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) in Pennsylvania at Commercial Fruit Orchards and the Surrounding Forest [PDF]

open access: yesInsects, 2021
The samurai wasp, Trissolcus japonicus (Ashmead) (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae), is an egg parasitoid associated with the brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys (Stål) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae).

Attenuation of ultraviolet (UV) radiation does not impede host location in egg parasitoids with positive UV phototaxis

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 445-457, August 2023., 2023
We investigated how ultraviolet (UV) radiation affects the foraging behaviours of two species of female stink bug egg parasitoids. UV‐exposed microhabitats were attractive to parasitoids and reduced their daily walking activity in the laboratory. UV attenuation did not reduce parasitoid host discovery and host exploitation rates on soybean plants in ...

BeeDNA: Microfluidic environmental DNA metabarcoding as a tool for connecting plant and pollinator communities

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 191-211, January 2023., 2023
Microfluidic metabarcoding of eDNA derived from the surfaces of flowers was able, to a degree, to document pollinator communities. Abstract Pollinators are declining globally, and this loss can reduce plant reproduction, erode critical ecosystem services and resilience, and drive economic losses.
