• Biological Control of Insect Pests in Agroecosystems: Effects of Crop Management, Farming Systems, and Seminatural Habitats at the Landscape Scale: A Review (2010, background): “It has also been shown that many hymenopteran parasitoid species feed on floral nectar ( Jervis et al., 1993; Wäckers, 2001) and that this may lead to higher rates of parasitism (Berndt et al., 2006; Ellis and Farrell, 1995; Stephens et al., 1998).”
• Arthropod pest management in organic crops. (2007, methodology): “with a second-phase method, rows of flowering buckwheat planted as understories throughout the vineyard as a food reward for parasitoid wasps (24) in an effort to improve the control of E.”
• Habitat manipulation to mitigate the impacts of invasive arthropod pests (2010, background): “…densities have been shown to increase and decrease respectively in vineyards close to buckwheat and alyssum (Scarratt 2005; Irvin et al. 2006), although increased parasitism rates and/or decreased pest densities has not been achieved in all trials (Berndt et al. 2002; Berndt et al. 2006).”
• Insect attraction to synthetic herbivore‐induced plant volatile‐treated field crops (2011, background): “If growers are to adopt more sustainable agricultural practices, studies on conservation biological control need to identify techniques that are more efficient in reducing pest populations to economic levels (Berndt et al., 2006).”
• Maximizing ecosystem services from conservation biological control: the role of habitat management. (2008, background): “However, it is true that when these four species have been compared in laboratory bioassays, their enhancement of the fitness of parasitoids does confirm their high ranking (Araj et al., 2006; Berndt et al., 2006; Irvin et al., 2006; Lavandero et al., 2005), although such laboratory comparisons rare”
• Influence of floral resources on sugar feeding and nutrient dynamics of a parasitoid in the field (2006, background): “Increased parasitism levels in the field have often been observed in the presence of floral resources ( Stephens et al. , 1998; English-Loeb et al. , 2003; Ellis et al. , 2005; Lavandero et al. , 2005; Berndt et al. , 2006 ), suggesting that parasitoids are utilising the nectar.”
• Beyond nectar provision: the other resource requirements of parasitoid biological control agents (2016, background): “Similarly, parasitoids have increased in abundance and/or diversity in a range of crop types (Lavandero et al., 2005; Berndt et al., 2006; Lee & Heimpel, 2008; Gam ez-Viru es et al., 2009) when provided with additional sources of nectar.”
• Agroecosystem management and biotic interactions: a review (2011, background): “1993; Wäckers 2001), with higher levels of nectar availability associated with higher rates of parasitism (Berndt et al. 2006; Ellis et al. 2005; Stephens et al. 1998).”
