• Habitat manipulation to mitigate the impacts of invasive arthropod pests (2010, methodology): “This method can give information about attractiveness of food plants, which is an important factor to consider when selecting which plant species to provide for biological control (Kean et al. 2003; Bianchi and Wäckers 2008).”
• Arthropod pest management in organic crops. (2007, background): “Empirical evidence for the utility of conservation biological control strategies is rapidly accumulating (67) and is supported by modeling work (87).”
• Spillover edge effects: the dispersal of agriculturally subsidized insect natural enemies into adjacent natural habitats. (2006, background): “High enemy dispersal rates have similarly been shown to increase the effectiveness of resource subsidies in promoting control of pest species in modelled agroecosystems (Kean et al. 2003).”
• Beyond nectar provision: the other resource requirements of parasitoid biological control agents (2016, background): “There is also a danger of actually improving conditions for pests rather than the target natural enemy (Baggen & Gurr, 1998; Kean et al., 2003; Begum et al., 2006), although researchers have made important strides in identifying locally relevant flower species (Kehrli & Bacher, 2008; Isaacs et al.,…”
• Chemical ecology and conservation biological control (2008, background): “The evidence presented in these papers and James and Price (2004) shows that the use of controlled-release MeSA in crops can potentially increase recruitment and residency of populations of certain beneficial insects improving CBC. Lower deployment rates of MeSA dispensers (180/ha) appear to recruit”
• The influence of floral resource subsidies on parasitism rates of leafrollers (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) in New Zealand vineyards (2006, methodology): “By planting flowers in an agroecosystem, growers can provide ‘resource subsidies’ for parasitoids, potentially improving biological control of insect pests (Gurr et al., 2004; Kean et al., 2003; Tylianakis et al., 2004).”
• Ecology of the entomopathogenic fungi Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae in temperate agroecosystems: Potential for conservation biological control (2007, background): “In recent years, an extensive number of studies have been published with focus on CBC with respect to natural enemies belonging to the arthropods, i.e., predators and parasitoids (e.g., Landis et al., 2000; Gurr et al., 2003; Kean et al., 2003; Chang and Snyder, 2004).”
