A new Trissolcus Ashmead species (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) from Pakistan: Species description and its role as a biological control agent

open access: yes, 1993
Trissolcus crypticus sp. n., a sibling species of T. basalis (Wollaston), is described. Introduced from Pakistan into Australia and Hawaii (via Australia) as a ‘strain’ of T.

Testing the habituation assumption underlying models of parasitoid foraging behavior [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 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.

Complementary effects of pollination and biocontrol services enable ecological intensification in macadamia orchards

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 34, Issue 8, December 2024.
Abstract In many crops, both pollination and biocontrol determine crop yield, whereby the relative importance of the two ecosystem services can be moderated by the landscape context. However, additive and interactive effects of pollination and biocontrol in different landscape contexts are still poorly understood. We examined both ecosystem services in

Inter and intra-guild interactions in egg parasitoid species of the soybean stink bug complex

open access: yesPesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2002
The objective of this research was to evaluate the parasitism behavior of Telenomus podisi Ashmead, Trissolcus basalis (Wollaston) e Trissolcus urichi Crawford (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) on eggs of Nezara viridula L., Euschistus heros F., Piezodorus ...

Insect–microbe interactions and their influence on organisms and ecosystems

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2024.
Insect‐symbiont interactions can have a variety of impacts on organisms and the ecosystem. These multitrophic interactions can result in differential attraction of beneficial insects or natural enemies. Additinoally, these interactions can influence plant and/or soil health as well as microbiome composition.

Viabilidade de ovos de Nezara viridula (L.) armazenados a baixas temperaturas para o parasitismo por Trissolcus basalis (Woll.)

open access: yesActa Scientiarum. Agronomy, 2008
Neste trabalho procurou-se comparar quatro técnicas de armazenamento de ovos do percevejo-verde, Nezara viridula, visando um melhor aproveitamento das posturas para posterior parasitismo por Trissolcus basalis.

Oviposition fluids from adult wasps mediate interspecific competition between parasitoid larvae

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 1, Page 31-40, February 2024.
Interspecific competition between parasitoid larvae sharing a host is often thought to be resolved by physical combat. We show that injected oviposition fluids also mediate interspecific larval competition. We demonstrate that venom and calyx fluid from a solitary parasitoid can inhibit the development of a gregarious competitor, even in the absence of

Egg parasitoid attraction toward induced plant volatiles is disrupted by a non-host herbivore attacking above or belowground plant organs.

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Plants respond to insect oviposition by emission of oviposition-induced plant volatiles (OIPVs) which can recruit egg parasitoids of the attacking herbivore.

Raising Trissolcus basalis for the biological control of Nezara viridula in greenhouses of Almería (Spain) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The reduction in use of crop protection products in recent years has led to the appearance of new phytophage pests such as Nezara viridula (L.) in the greenhouses of Almería (Spain).

Técnicas de armazenamento de ovos do percevejo-verde visando à multiplicação do parasitóide Trissolcus basalis (Wollaston)

open access: yes, 1993
Different storage techniques of green stink burg (Nezara viridula L.) eggs were compared in the laboratory, with the objective of improving production of the egg parasitoid Trissolcus basalis.
