Habitat Management to Conserve Natural Enemies of Arthropod Pests in Agriculture
TL;DR: The rapidly expanding literature on habitat management is reviewed with attention to practices for favoring predators and parasitoids, implementation of habitat management, and the contributions of modeling and ecological theory to this developing area of conservation biological control.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Microsatellite studies of two distinct populations of Cotesia vestalis show a limited capacity to discriminate parasitized from healthy larvae despite a viability cost associated with failing to avoid superparasitism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arthropod pest management in organic crops
TL;DR: The present work uses the four phases of the model to review the strategies in an agroecological context and provides a synthesis of the factors that influence the success of each phase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multi-function agricultural biodiversity: pest management and other benefits
TL;DR: In this paper, the existence of a hierarchy for the types of benefits of increased biodiversity is discussed, and the ways in which agricultural biodiversity may be increased to favour pest management are examined.
