functional response and multiple predator effects of two generalist predators preying on tuta absoluta eggs. | interactions among invertebrate predators could affect a pest suppression. the hemipteran species macrolophus pygmaeus (rambur) and nesidiocoris tenuis (reuter) (hemiptera: miridae) are natural enemies of several pests in agroecosystems and coexist in tomato crops in mediterranean countries. by using the multiplicative risk model (mrm) and the substitutive model, the multiple predator effects (mpes) on prey suppression were calculated when two individuals of the predators foraged at the same den ... | 2018 | 28815991 |
