• The future of farming: The value of ecosystem services in conventional and organic arable land. An experimental approach (2008, methodology): “One approach to achieving farm sustainability is to utilise nature’s services on farmland to increase productivity by replacing most external inputs such as pesticides, fertilisers (Gurr et al., 2004).”
• Recent advances in conservation biological control of arthropods by arthropods (2008, background): “Recent scientific reviews have considered CBC as a component of habitat manipulation (Landis et al., 2000; Gurr et al., 2004) or have focused on a part of CBC, e.g., plantprovided food for natural enemies (Wäckers et al., 2005).”
• Vegetation increases the abundance of natural enemies in vineyards (2009, background): “By understanding characteristics of vegetation that promote natural enemies, this potential cost could be decreased (Gurr et al., 2004).”
• Chemical ecology and conservation biological control (2008, background): “Numerous examples of the potential and practicality of such approaches are available (Landis et al., 2000; Midega and Khan, 2003; Gurr et al., 2004; Midega et al., 2006; Koji et al., 2007).”
• Relative Frequencies of Visits to Selected Insectary Plants by Predatory Hoverflies (Diptera: Syrphidae), Other Beneficial Insects, and Herbivores (2006, background): “The selective use of ßoral resources by natural enemies and pests has been reported to a lesser extent, but signiÞcant progress needs to be made in this area to advance precision in the use of insectary plantings to enhance biological control (Jervis and Kidd 1996, Gurr et al. 2004).”
