- Larger wildflower plantings increase natural enemy density, diversity, and biological control of sentinel prey, without increasing herbivore density (2012, background): “Sufficient flower abundance and proper vegetation structure are required to support diverse populations of insects (Zurbrügg & Frank, 2006), and therefore manipulation of structurally resource-poor habitats through the addition of flowering plants and grasses can increase beneficial insect populatio”

- Wildflower plantings enhance the abundance of natural enemies and their services in adjacent blueberry fields (2015, background): “…plant abundance and diversity through the addition of flowering plants and grasses is expected to increase natural enemy populations (Andow, 1991; Rebek et al., 2005; Sivinski et al., 2009; Thomson and Hoffmann, 2009) and enhance their provision of biological control services (Landis et al.,…”
