Currently, biological control programs in greenhouse crops involve the use, at the same time, several natural enemies during the crop cycle. Also, large number of plant species grown in greenhouses, among them, the used cultivars are also wide. However, the cultivar effects on entomophagous species efficacy (predators and parasitoids) have been scarcely studied. A new method had been developed,...

There are several types of spider mites, some which specialized to feed on certain crops, and they a major nuisance in agriculture. Predatory insects such as golden-eyes, semi-hardwings, cockroaches, predatory can successfully reduce the number mites. The type crop particular mite species have an impact how successful these predators are. Spider mites frequently encountered agricultural pest, t...

When invasive species move to new environments they typically experience population bottlenecks that limit the probability that pathogens and parasites are also moved. The invasive species may thus be released from biotic interactions that can be a major source of density-dependent mortality, referred to as enemy release. We examined for evidence of enemy release in populations of the common wa...
