• Wildflower plantings enhance the abundance of natural enemies and their services in adjacent blueberry fields (2015, background): “Floral resources have been used previously in crop systems to increase parasitoid populations and enhance parasitism of pests (Jonsson et al., 2010; Gontijo et al., 2013).”
• Beyond nectar provision: the other resource requirements of parasitoid biological control agents (2016, background): “…exploring this mechanism and its application to pest control has grown dramatically since then (Altieri & Whitcomb, 1979; Jervis & Kidd, 1986; Kidd & Jervis, 1989; Jervis et al., 1993; Baggen et al., 1999; Wratten et al., 2003; Berndt & Wratten, 2005; Gurr et al., 2011; Gontijo et al., 2013).”
