Impact of wildflower strips on biological control of cabbage lepidopterans. (2009, unknown): “Egg parasitoids cover only short distances by active dispersal (Fournier and Boivin, 2000) Fig.”
A ‘Goldilocks’ hypothesis for dispersal of biological control agents (2011, background): “…control can lead to attack rates that are high adjacent to release sites but decline rapidly with distance from the release site, as has been found in some Trichogramma parasitoids (e.g., Andow and Prokrym 1991; Greatti and Zandigiacomo 1995; McDougall and Mills 1997; Fournier and Boivin 2000).”
Distribution and colonisation ability of three parasitoids and their herbivorous host in a fragmented landscape (2007, background): “…dispersal within a habitat patch has been observed, indeed suggest that only a small fraction of released individual parasitoids disperse up to the maximum measured distance (100m at most) (Ellers, Van Alphen, & Sevenster, 1998; Fournier & Boivin, 2000; Hagler, Jackson, Henneberry, & Gould, 2002).”
Foraging behavior of egg parasitoids exploiting chemical information (2008, background): “Ostrinia nubilalis Calling virgin females Attraction Frenoy et al. (1992) No response to main sex pheromone component Kaiser et al.”
