Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Fodder radish supported high production of pollen beetle parasitoids.
- Observation Turnip rape showed potential as a pest trap crop.
- Observation The Tyfon hybrid showed potential as a pest trap crop.
- Observation Early flowering of turnip rape and Tyfon allowed pollen beetle larvae to escape parasitisation.
- Observation Forage rape supported high pollen beetle parasitoid production.
- Observation Forage rape did not potentiate problems with other pests.
- Recommendation Forage rape was identified as a favourable banker plant option.
- Recommendation Field margin mixtures require careful plant selection and study of the whole pest-beneficial complex.
