Laboratory studies indicated that several important braconid
parasitoids of fruit flies -- F.
To address such questions, Jean-Michel Drezen of the National Center for Scientific Research in Tours, France, and his team recently sequenced the genetic material that encodes the virus particles found in one species of braconid
He will also receive a braconid
wasp that parasitizes leafrollers.
In the upper stratum, the densities of trichogrammatids were increased in Tr3 and Tr4, but not significantly; and the densities of braconids
and ichneumonids were significantly increased in all of the treatments except Tr1, In the middle stratum, the densities of trichogrammatids were not differ significantly from the control in Trl and Tr2, but they significantly less than in the control in Tr3 and Tr4; the densities of ichneumonids were significantly increased only by Tr2, and braconids
were absent in this stratum.
wasps (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) represent an important insect group in biodiversity and conservation studies.
Parasitism of Neosilba perezi (Diptera: Tephritidae) larvae by a braconid
, Phaenocarpa neosilba (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Alysiinae).
The pteromalid Catolaccus hunteri (Crawford, 1908) and the braconid
Triaspis eugenii Warton & Lopez-Martinez, 2000 are considered the most important parasitoids to reduce pepper weevil infestations (Rodriguez-Leyva et al.
The smaller sized parasitoid supercooled to lower temperatures even though it was reared at a higher temperature (25[degrees]C) than the larger sized braconid
reared at 15[degrees]C.
Potential for areawide integrated management of Mediterranean fruit fly (Diptera: Tephritidae) with a braconid
parasitoid and a novel bait spray.
Effect of larval host food substrate on egg load dynamics, egg size and adult female size in four species of braconid
fruit fly (Diptera: Tephritidae) parasitoids.
The present survey demonstrated that 2 groups of presumably native braconid
parasitoids, Atanycolus spp.
3 kg) were infested yielding 7,662 puparia from which 3,073 Anastrepha adults (1,469 males and 1,604 females), 669 braconid
parasitoids, and 17 figitid parasitoids emerged.
