Other claims from this paper (9)
- Method / resource Sweep-net predator counts could be calibrated against stem counts.
- Observation Aphidius eadyi was best synchronized with lucerne aphid populations.
- Observation Micromus tasmaniae was best synchronized with lucerne aphid populations.
- Association Strip-cut reservoirs were associated with lower aphid populations except in spring.
- Association Strip-grazed reservoirs were associated with lower aphid populations except in spring.
- Association Reservoirs were associated with lower aphid-to-predator ratios except in spring.
- Intervention effect Released laboratory-bred parasites had limited impact because they dispersed slowly.
- Intervention effect Winter grazing significantly reduced spring aphid populations.
- Intervention effect Herbicide treatment significantly reduced spring aphid populations.
