Factors influencing brood sex ratio in the egg parasitoid Trissolcus basalis (Woll.) (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) [PDF]

, 2016
This study examines the sex ratio response of the egg parasitoid Trissolcus basalis (Woll.) to both the presence of other conspecific females and to their traces when ovipositing on Nezara viridula (L.) egg masses.

Development of the elements of the biological system for protecting crops against the southern green stink bug Nezara viridula L. (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) in Krasnodar Krai

BIO Web of Conferences, 2020
The article considers the issues related to the development of the methods of biological crop protection against the adventive species of pentatomides (Pentatomidae, Hemiptera) – the southern green stink bug Nezara viridula L. 1758.

Effects of Abiotic Factors on HIPV‐Mediated Interactions between Plants and Parasitoids

BioMed Research International, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
In contrast to constitutively emitted plant volatiles (PV), herbivore‐induced plant volatiles (HIPV) are specifically emitted by plants when afflicted with herbivores. HIPV can be perceived by parasitoids and predators which parasitize or prey on the respective herbivores, including parasitic hymenoptera.

First record of Trissolcus japonicus (Ashmead) (Hymenoptera, Scelionidae) in western Slovenia: Evidence from a multi-year survey of stink bug egg parasitoids [PDF]

Journal of Hymenoptera Research
The global invasion of the brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB), Halyomorpha halys (Stål) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), is responsible for high economic losses to agriculture worldwide. As classical biological control is considered the most effective long-term

The first mitochondrial genome for the wasp superfamily Platygastroidea: the egg parasitoidTrissolcus basalis

Genome, 2012
The nearly complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of an egg parasitoid, Trissolcus basalis (Wollaston), was sequenced using both 454 and Illumina next-generation sequencing technologies. A portion of the noncoding region remained unsequenced, possibly owing to the presence of repeats.

What is the potential for artificial selection of insect biological control traits? A systematic review of their genetic variation, heritability, and evolvability

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 6, Page 463-497, June 2025.
Growing interest in optimizing biocontrol traits, particularly due to Nagoya Protocol constraints, necessitates understanding their heritability and genetic variation. This systematic review of 5209 studies on arthropod biocontrol agents yielded 94 relevant articles, with 42 providing heritability values.

Chemical Ecology of Egg Parasitoids Associated with True Bugs

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Parasitoids representing some 15 families of Hymenoptera develop in insect eggs; three of these families, Platygastridae (= Scelionidae), Mymaridae, and Encyrtidae, are associated with Heteroptera. Several species of heteropteran egg parasitoids are or may be important for biological pest control.

Nectar‐inhabiting bacteria differently affect the longevity of co‐occurring egg parasitoid species by modifying nectar chemistry

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 186, Issue 2, Page 204-215, March 2025.
Floral nectar is a sugar‐rich resource which is essential for covering the energetic and nutritional requirements of adult parasitoids. Recent research has shown that floral nectar is ubiquitously colonized by microbes, however how nectar‐inhabiting microbes affect parasitoid performance is poorly investigated.

Tiny but mighty? Overview of a decade of research on nectar bacteria

New Phytologist, Volume 245, Issue 5, Page 1897-1910, March 2025.
Summary An emerging focus of research at the intersection of botany, zoology, and microbiology is the study of floral nectar as a microbial habitat, referred to as the nectar microbiome, which can alter plant–pollinator interactions. Studies on these microbial communities have primarily focused on yeasts, and it was only about a decade ago that ...
