A major obstacle to high-throughput genotyping of micro-hymenoptera is their small size. As species are difficult to discriminate and because complexes may exist, the sequencing of a pool of specimens is hazardous. Thus, one should be able to sequence pangenomic markers (e.g. RADtags) from a single specimen. To date, whole genome amplification...

Microsatellite loci were isolated from the aphid parasitoid Lysiphlebus testaceipes (Hymenoptera: Braconidae). Ten loci were obtained from an enriched partial genomic library. Genetic diversity was analysed at seven of these loci and two natural populations, one on oleander and one on citrus. The observed number of alleles ranged from one to...

Background: The ecological differentiation of insects with parasitic life-style is a complex process that may involve phylogenetic constraints as well as morphological and/or behavioural adaptations. In most cases, the relative importance of these driving forces remains unexplored. We investigate here this question for the "Eupelmus urozonus...

Several management methods for phytophagous bugs on tomato, eggplants and cabbage crops wereevaluated during the research program IMPULsE (2017-2020). In addition, a huge work was carried outfor characterization of the species of bugs present, in order to better understand and to be able to correctlyidentify these highly problematic pests in...
