Habitat heterogeneity reduces abundance of invasive mealybugs in subtropical fruit crops
Published 2024“…Therefore, habitat diversification strategies should be considered in the conservation biological control of invasive mealybugs. Importantly, our findings also show that the presence of efficient natural enemies is critical to maximize their control through habitat diversification strategies.…”

Organic vs. conventional : comparative study on pollinating insects and their efficiency in white clover fields
Published 2017“…To restore and conserve biological systems while keeping the food supplies on an acceptable level, there is a demand for organic practice in the agriculture sector. 75 % of the plants for human consumption and animal forage are dependent on animal pollination therefor it is equally important to increase the variety of the cultivated plants and find sustainable solution that is relatively cheap to grow. …”

Honeydew as a newly described route of insecticide exposure to beneficial insects
Published 2022“…Nonetheless, this is the most valuable type of biological control to agriculture in economic terms, with an annual estimated value of $4.49 billion, or $417 per ha and year, only in the United States (Costanza et al., 1998; Losey and Vaughan, 2006; van Lenteren et al., 2017). II) Conservation biological control consists of enhancing the performance of naturally occurring biological control agents by conserving their resources and reducing the pesticide-induced mortality of biological control agents (Holland et al., 2016; van Lenteren et al., 2017). …”
