Sown wildflower strips for insect conservation: a review (2011, background): “In the few published contrasts, sown wildflower strips have comparable insect numbers and diversity to that in extensively used grasslands, despite the fact that they are recently established habitats (Pfiffner & Luka, 2000; Zurbrügg & Frank, 2006; Aviron et al., 2007a).”
Landscape effects on recolonisation patterns of spiders in arable fields (2008, unknown): “High abundance of spiders in non-crop habitats during winter and spring suggest that these habitats are more appropriate for overwintering than annual crop fields and an important source for immigration (Luczak, 1979; Marc et al., 1999; Pfiffner and Luka, 2000; Lemke and Poehling, 2002).”
Hibernation of predatory arthropods in semi-natural habitats (2009, background): “The majority of natural enemies depends on noncrop habitats for overwintering, as bare fields are generally less suitable for hibernation (Andersen 1997; Pfiffner and Luka 2000).”
Agroecosystem management and biotic interactions: a review (2011, background): “Flower strips favouring the development of flower-dependent specialist predators and parasitoids also make very good refuges for ground-dwelling beneficial species 2–3 years after the planting of several tussock grasses (Nentwig 1988; Frank and Nentwig 1995; Pfiffner and Luka 2000; Meek et al. 2002;”
Impact of wildflower strips on biological control of cabbage lepidopterans. (2009, unknown): “Vegetative buffers and uncropped field margins provide many of these vital resources, helping to sustainbeneficial arthropods inagricultural land (Landis et al., 2000; Pfiffner and Luka, 2000).”
Manipulating plant resources to enhance beneficial arthropods in agricultural landscapes (2005, background): “Pfiffner and Luka (2000) found that predaceous carabid beetles, rove beetles (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae), and spiders (Araneae) were absent from crop areas and found only in wildflower margins during the overwintering period.”
Agricultural Landscapes (2004, background): “These sown strips can provide overwintering habitat for arthropod natural enemies (Pfiffner and Luka, 2000) that can be colonized within 12 to 14 months of establishment (Thomas et al.”
Conservation biological control and enemy diversity on a landscape scale (2007, background): “Annual crops are, in addition, characterized by their limited suitability for over-wintering after harvest and subsequent tillage, and insufficient food resources such as nectar and pollen (Pfiffner and Luka, 2000; Holland and Reynolds, 2003; Thorbek and Bilde, 2004).”
