Resource Heterogeneity Moderates the Biodiversity-Function Relationship in Real World Ecosystems (2008, background): “finding negative [20,21] and no effects [22] of diversity on”
Vegetation increases the abundance of natural enemies in vineyards (2009, background): “A multispecies complex of parasitoids such as that seen here can improve control of various pests (Rodriguez and Hawkin, 2000) and a range of parasitoids attack vineyard pests (Thomson and Hoffmann, 2006a) including LBAM.”
Natural enemy diversity and pest control: patterns of pest emergence with agricultural intensification. (2002, background): “Thus, we assume that within a natural enemy group attacking a particular lifecycle stage, there is compensatory activity among functional natural enemy species and no effect of species richness on the functional capacity of the group (Rodrı́guez & Hawkins 2000).”
Sustainable pest regulation in agricultural landscapes: a review on landscape composition, biodiversity and natural pest control (2006, background): “Rodrı́guez & Hawkins (2000) and Finke & Denno (2004) showed that a simplified natural enemy community provides control of pest populations that is equal to or better than a complex of natural enemies.”
Effects of climate warming on host–parasitoid interactions (2013, background): “However, it is worth emphasising that reduced parasitoid assemblage sizes on range-expanding hosts will not necessarily lead to reduced parasitism rates (Rodriguez & Hawkins, 2000).”
Are the conservation of natural enemy biodiversity and biological control compatible goals (2008, background): “Likewise, studies have shown that increasing the number of spider species attacking grasshoppers (Sokol-Hessner and Schmitz, 2002), parasitoid species attacking grass-feeding chalcid wasps (Rodrı́guez and Hawkins, 2000), and aphidophagous species attacking aphids (Evans, 1991; Chang, 1996; Straub an”
