Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Orius insidiosus and O. pumilio were sympatric major predators of Frankliniella bispinosa on the flowers.
- Observation F. bispinosa was the predominant thrips on both plants.
- Observation Neither Orius species showed host-plant affinity.
- Association Thrips prey abundance declined rapidly as Orius predator populations increased.
- Mechanism Temporal Orius increases during flowering suggest reproductive activity.
- Observation O. insidiosus had a larger flower population than O. pumilio.
- Observation The O. insidiosus flower population was predominantly male.
- Observation Orius predation showed no apparent thrips-sex preference.
- Observation Few thrips or Orius immatures occurred on either plant, suggesting development elsewhere.
- Recommendation The authors suggest D. carota and A. majus as banker plants for Orius.
