Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Buckwheat increased Aphidius ervi survival 45 times over water.
- Intervention effect Buckwheat increased Aphidius ervi survival 34 times over phacelia, alyssum or coriander.
- Intervention effect Buckwheat increased Dendrocerus aphidum survival 35 times over other flowering plants.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that buckwheat, phacelia, alyssum and coriander can enhance A. ervi fitness without benefiting its aphid host.
- Observation The authors warn that hyperparasitoid fitness may increase relatively more than parasitoid fitness, depending on nectar source.
