Predators belonging to a variety of orders and families are known to feed on pollen and nectar, and adult parasitoids acquire nutrients from honeydew and floral and extrafloral nectar. A recent publication by Wäckers et al. (2005) discusses the p- visioning of plant resources to natural enemies from the perspective of the plant, exploring the evolutionary possibility that plants enhance their defenses by recru- ing enemies to food sources. The present volume, in contrast, presents primarily the enemies’ perspective, and as such is the first comprehensive review of the nut- tional importance of non-prey foods for insect predators and parasitoids. Although the ecological significance of feeding on non-prey foods has long been underappreciated, attempts have been made to manipulate nectar and pollen ava- ability in crop fields in order to enhance levels of biological pest control by natural enemi | 出版日期 | Book 2009 | 关键词 | Biological Control; Flora; Fungi; Nutritional ecology; Omnivory; Parasitoid; Predator; Symbiose; Model inver | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4020-9235-0 | isbn_softcover | 978-90-481-8095-0 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4020-9235-0Series ISSN 1573-5915 Series E-ISSN 2543-0076 | issn_series | 1573-5915 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2009 |
