Journal ArticleDOI

On the mechanism of Wolbachia-induced cytoplasmic incompatibility: confronting the models with the facts.

TL;DR: The lock-and-key model is the most parsimonious of the models and fits the observations best, and the two other models cannot be categorically invalidated, but they encounter some difficulties that make additional hypotheses necessary.
Journal ArticleDOI

Costs of secondary parasitism in the facultative hyperparasitoid Pachycrepoideus dubius: does host size matter?

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that the size of D. melanogaster pupae parasitized by A. tabida may be close to the suboptimal host size for P. dubius beneath which the costs of hyperparasitism make this strategy nonadaptive.
Journal ArticleDOI

Patch exploitation strategies of parasitic wasps under intraspecific competition

TL;DR: In competitive situations, some members of the population tended to retreat almost immediately from the patch whereas other members tended to remain, further exploit the patch, and be more involved in interactions with conspecifics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of a widespread monomolecular odor differentially attractive to several Delia radicum ground-dwelling predators in the field.

TL;DR: Attractiveness of this widespread compound was tested in the field in a naturally complex odorous environment using an original setup especially designed for ground dwelling beetles and the use of general linear model (GLM) statistics permitted us to finely discriminate the responses among the different treatments.
