Habitat manipulation to mitigate the impacts of invasive arthropod pests (2010, background): “‘Refuge’ crop strips in alfalfa 0 ? NA NA NA NA Hossain et al. (2002)”
Efficacy and economics of shelter habitats for conservation biological control (2008, background): “Similarly, a study on the use of unharvested refuge strips in lucerne (Medicago sativa L.) suggested that strips should be spaced less than 30 m apart to enable natural enemies to contribute to herbivore suppression over the entire width of the intervening crop (Hossain et al., 2002).”
The need for effective marking and tracking techniques for monitoring the movements of insect predators and parasitoids (2004, background): “In typical agroecosystems, pesticide use, harvesting and other practices such as burning can affect the size, distribution and dispersal of the insect parasitoid and predator populations (Hossain et al., 2001, 2002).”
Uncut grass refuges mitigate the impact of mechanical meadow harvesting on orthopterans (2012, background): “Moreover net movements of arthropods have been recorded from cut to uncut plots in a lucerne (Medicago sativa) crop pest control experiment (Hossain et al., 2002).”
