DOI: 10.1080/09583157.2019.1608507
Abstract: ABSTRACT In Guatemalan coffee plantations, Ceratitis capitata populations were suppressed by the application of augmentative releases of parasitoids. These releases significantly increased parasitism of this fruit fly over paired no-release control areas. Integrated management plus… read more here.
