Izraeli, Y., Lalzar, M., Netanel, N., Steinberg, S., Mozes-Daube, N., Chiel, E., & Zchori-Fein, E. 2020 Wolbachia influence on the fitness of Anagyrus vladimiri (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae), a bio-control agent of mealybugs. Pest Management Science DOI 10.1002/ps.6117
Keywords:
Notes: We postulated that it is possible to improve the efficacy of biological control agents by manipulating the composition of their associated microbiota. The parasitoid wasp Anagyrus vladimiri (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) from a mass-rearing facility was chosen for testing this hypothesis.
