Citations in the corpus
- Vegetation increases the abundance of natural enemies in vineyards (2009, background): “However the connection between natural enemy activity and pest control is not always clear (Gurr et al., 2000).”
- Biological control and sustainable food production (2008, methodology): “Examples include the control of whiteflies, leafminers, thrips, aphids and mites by parasitoids and predators in greenhouses (van Lenteren 2000a).”
- Modelling and analysis of integrated pest management strategy (2004, background): “One of the first successful cases of biological control in greenhouses was the use of the parasitoid Encarsia formosa against the greenhouse whitefly Trialeurodes vaporariorum on tomatoes and cucumbers[1-2].”
- Biological control using invertebrates and microorganisms: plenty of new opportunities (2018, background): “It has been applied with success for more than 100 years in several cropping systems (Gurr and Wratten 2000; Cock et al. 2010).”
- The Control of Biological Invasions in the World's Oceans (2001, background): “…is that an introduced predator, competitor, parasite, or disease from the pest species’ native habitat can effectively control a pest population, as demonstrated by some spectacular successes in agricultural systems on land (Van Driesche & Bellows 1996; Center et al. 1998; Gurr & Wratten 2000).”
- The state of commercial augmentative biological control: plenty of natural enemies, but a frustrating lack of uptake (2012, background): “Conservation biological control consists of human actions that protect and stimulate the performance of naturally occurring natural enemies (Gurr and Wratten 2000).”
