To move or not to move: Dispersal of Orius insidiosus in strawberry plants by Alonso, Mariangeles, Guisoni, Nara, Rocca, Margarita, Greco, Nancy

“…When TSSM was the only prey available, O. insidiosus colonized the leaves, and its dispersal within the plant was greater. At the plot scale, the predator dispersal from the release plant to other plants also depended on the presence of flowering plants and prey. …”

Unraveling the forage productivity puzzle: comparing fast and slow-growing grasses by Pittaro, Gabriela, Duchini, Paulo G., Guzatti, Gabriela C., Sbrissia, André F.

“…Conversely, there were no differences in relative growth rate or forage accumulation. F. arundinacea was able to offset their plant functional traits, typically associated with slow-growing grasses, with some demographic parameter like higher tiller population density, allowing it to be as productive as the fast-growing A. elatius when both were grown in fertile soil. …”
