Exotic predators can sequester and use novel toxins from exotic non-coevolved prey por Plata, Ángel, Züst, Tobias, Bermejo, Almudena, Beitia, Francisco J., Tena, Alejandro

“…Then, we quantified the deterrent effect of carminic acid against antagonistic ants. Our results demonstrate that the Australian coccinellid Cryptolaemus montrouzieri sequestered carminic acid, a substance absent in its coevolved prey, from exotic cochineal bugs. …”

Encyrtid Parasitoids of Soft Scale Insects: Biology, Behavior, and Their Use in Biological Control por Kapranas, Apostolos, Tena, Alejandro

“…Lastly, the interactions among encyrtids, heteronomous parasitoids, and ants shape parasitoid species complexes and consequently have a direct impact on the biological control of soft scale insects.…”

The influence of aphid-produced honeydew on parasitoid fitness and nutritional state: A comparative study por Tena, Alejandro, Senft, Matthias, Desneux, Nicolas, Dregni, Jonathan, Heimpel, George E.

“…Honeydew is a sugar-rich resource excreted by many hemipteran species and is a key food source for other insect species such as ants and parasitoid wasps. Here, we evaluated the nutritional value of 14 honeydews excreted by 13 aphid species for the generalist aphid parasitoid Lysiphlebus testaceipes to test a series of hypotheses concerning variation in the nutritional value of honeydew. …”

Parasitoid nutritional ecology in a community context: the importance of honeydew and implications for biological control por Tena, Alejandro, Wackers, Felix L., Heimpel, George E., Urbaneja, Alberto, Pekas, Apostolos

“…The strength of these effects will depend on: first, parasitoid biology, second, the presence of other sugar sources (mainly nectar), third, the quality and quantity of the honeydew, and fourth, the presence and competitive strength of other honeydew consumers such as ants. The combination of these four factors is expected to result in distinct scenarios that should be analyzed for each agroecosystem. …”

Biological control of the cassava mealybug, Phenacoccus manihoti (Homoptera: Pseudococcidae), in Zambia por Chakupurakal, J., Markham, R.H., Neuenschwander, Peter, Sakala, M., Malambo, C., Mulwanda, D., Banda, E., Chalabesa, A., Bird, T., Haug, T.M.

“…Where CM populations were lower, damage by the cassava green mite, Mononychellus tanajoa (Bondar) (Acari, Tetranychidae), appeared more severe. The frequency of ants increased with the CM population density. In conclusion, biological control of the CM in Zambia was successful.…”
