Book ChapterDOI
Quantitative trait locus analysis in haplodiploid hymenoptera.
TL;DR: A way to empirically estimate the Beavis effect for a larger QTL mapping population and how to estimate a more accurate value of the explained phenotypic variance of each detected QTL using a resampling procedure is provided.
Posted ContentDOI

TL;DR: The de novo genome assemblies, detailed annotation, and comparative analysis of two closely related parasitoid wasps that target pest aphids provide a strong foundation for further functional studies including coevolution with respect to their hosts, the basis of successful infection, and biocontrol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fitness benefits of the fruit fly Rhagoletis alternata on a non-native rose host
TL;DR: It is shown that native species switching to a novel non-native host can experience fitness benefits compared to the original native host.
Journal ArticleDOI
Behaviour of two fly species reared for livestock feed: optimising production and insect welfare
Y. Kortsmit,M. van der Bruggen,Bregje Wertheim,Marcel Dicke,Leo W. Beukeboom,Joop J. A. van Loon +5 more
TL;DR: This review synthesises the current behavioural knowledge on two saprophytic dipteran species that are increasingly being used as mini-livestock, the black soldier fly and the housefly, and identifies which behaviours need to be considered to optimise insect production and welfare under mass-rearing conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Erratum: Recombination and its impact on the genome of the haplodiploid parasitoid wasp Nasonia (Insect Molecular Biology (2010) DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0008597)
