Mortality risk from entomopathogenic fungi affects oviposition behavior in the parasitoid wasp Trybliographa rapae.
Biological control of pests in agroecosystems could be enhanced by combining multiple natural enemies. However, this approach might also compromise the control efficacy through intraguild predation (IGP) among the natural enemies. Parasitoids may be able to avoid the risk of unidirectional IGP posed by entomopathogenic fungi through selective oviposition behavior during host foraging. Trybliogr...
متن کاملResource quality affects restlessness in the parasitoid wasp Nasonia vitripennis
Optimal foraging theory, specifically the marginal value theorem, predicts quicker leaving (shorter residence time) from poorer patches. One proximal mechanism for achieving the leaving is that exposure to lower-quality resources may trigger increased restlessness (proportion of time in locomotion). Which aspects of host quality, if any, affect restlessness was examined in females of the parasi...
متن کاملParasitoid foraging and oviposition behavior in the field
Since parasitoids can be reared from their hosts and leave evidence of parasitism after they emerge from hosts, some general outlines of their foraging behavior can be inferred from field studies that do not involve direct observation. However, direct observations are often needed to uncover critical aspects of patch use, host finding, and host use. Studies of parasitoid foraging in the field u...
متن کاملThe Transcriptomic Basis of Oviposition Behaviour in the Parasitoid Wasp Nasonia vitripennis
Linking behavioural phenotypes to their underlying genotypes is crucial for uncovering the mechanisms that underpin behaviour and for understanding the origins and maintenance of genetic variation in behaviour. Recently, interest has begun to focus on the transcriptome as a route for identifying genes and gene pathways associated with behaviour. For many behavioural traits studied at the phenot...
متن کاملInterference and the ideal free distribution: oviposition in a parasitoid wasp
The interference ideal free distribution (IFD) model of Sutherland makes a number of predictions that have yet to be tested and that have implications for the validity of subsequent extensions to the theory. We tested these predictions in a study using different densities of the parasitoid wasp, Venturia canescens, foraging on patches containing different densities of its host, Plodia interpunc...
