Scelionidae (Hymenoptera) parasitizing eggs of Bagrada hilaris (Hemiptera, Pentatomidae) in Mexico [PDF]
Journal of Hymenoptera Research, 2019 The painted bug or bagrada bug, Bagrada hilaris (Burmeister) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), is a key pest of crops in the family Brassicaceae. In this work, three species of Scelionidae (Hymenoptera) are reported for the first time as parasitoids of painted ...

Lethal and sublethal effects of four essential oils on the egg parasitoids Trissolcus basalis
Chemosphere, 2013 The essential oils from leaves of Schinus molle var. areira, Aloysia citriodora, Origanum vulgare and Thymus vulgaris have showed potential as phytoinsecticides against the green stink bug, Nezara viridula. In this work were evaluated their toxicological and behavioral effects on the parasitoid Trissolcus basalis, a biological control agent of this ...

Multiparasitism of stink bug eggs: competitive interactions between Ooencyrtus pityocampae and Trissolcus agriope [PDF]
, 2014 Females of Trissolcus agriope (Platygastridae) avoid host (Brachynema signatum) eggs parasitized by conspecifics or Ooencyrtus pityocampae (Encyrtidae), but females of the latter species will superparasitize and multiparasitize, although they mostly ...

The response of an egg parasitoid to substrate-borne semiochemicals is affected by previous experience [PDF]
, 2016 Animals can adjust their behaviour according to previous experience gained during foraging. In parasitoids, experience plays a key role in host location, a hierarchical process in which air-borne and substrate-borne semiochemicals are used to find hosts.

An exotic parasitoid provides an invasional lifeline for native parasitoids
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 277-284, January 2017., 2017 The results of experiments examining the interspecific interactions between a native European egg parasitoid, Trissolcus cultratus, and an Asian parasitoid, Trissolcus japonicus (a candidate for the biological control of Halyomorpha halys), showed that the native species can act as facultative hyperparasitoid of the exotic one.

Testing the habituation assumption underlying models of parasitoid foraging behavior [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Background Habituation, a form of non-associative learning, has several well-defined characteristics that apply to a wide range of physiological and behavioral responses in many organisms.

Prospects of herbivore egg‐killing plant defenses for sustainable crop protection
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 6, Issue 19, Page 6906-6918, October 2016., 2016 Exploiting egg‐killing defense traits should be promising to reduce crop losses in future. However, little is known on the mechanisms and on the genetic basis of egg‐killing traits. In our review article, we address three main topics: (1) the phylogeny and ubiquity of plants expressing insect egg‐killing defenses, (2) mechanisms underlying and to be ...
