Ground beetles as predators of oilseed rape pests : incidence, spatio-temporal distributions and feeding
Williams, Ingrid; Ferguson, Andrew; Kruus, M; Veromann, E; Warner, Douglas (Springer Nature, 2010-05-26) -
Pest-predator spatial relationships in winter rape: implications for integrated crop management
Warner, Douglas; Allen Williams, Leslie John; Ferguson, Andrew; Williams, Ingrid (2000-10-13)The brassica pod midge (Dasineura brassicae) is an important and widespread pest of winter and spring oilseed rape throughout Europe. Pods infested by D brassicae larvae split prematurely, releasing seeds, and the larvae ... -
Relationships between insect pests and their parasitoids in a winter oilseed rape crop
Ferguson, Andrew; Campbell, J.M.; Barari, H.; Warner, Douglas; Watts, N.P.; Williams, Ingrid (2006-04-05)Studies of trophic and spatio-temporal relationships among invertebrates in crops are key to the identification of agents that have potential in biological control, and could enable modification of crop agronomy, such as ... -
Spatial relationships between carabids and pest larvae in a winter oilseed rape crop
Warner, Douglas; Allen Williams, Leslie John; Ferguson, Andrew; Williams, Ingrid (2006-04-03)Studies in the EU MASTER project show that carabid beetles can feed on larvae of oilseed rape pests (e.g. Piper & Williams, 2004), but to identify them as potential biocontrol agents it must be shown that significant numbers ... -
Spatio-temporal distributions of Meligethes aeneus and its parasitoids in an oilseed rape crop and their significance for crop protection
Ferguson, Andrew; Campbell, J.M.; Warner, Douglas; Watts, N.P.; Schmidt, J.E.U.; Williams, Ingrid (2003-07-10)The distributions and phenology of Meligethes aeneus and its parasitoids were studied in relation to the potential value of spatio-temporal information for integrated crop management (ICM) and the conservation management ...
