Prior adaptation of parasitoids improves biological control of symbiont‐protected pests
Abstract There is increasing demand for sustainable pest management to reduce harmful effects of pesticides on the environment and human health. For pest aphids, biological control with parasitoid wasps provides a welcome alternative, particularly in greenhouses. However, aphids are frequently infec...
