Improving mass rearing of the egg parasitoid Telenomus remus (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9786208245986)

Rearing insects in the laboratory is of fundamental importance for obtaining pure, quality biological material for basic or applied entomological studies, as well as pest control in the field. Therefore, the aim of this work was to promote the selection of flying Telenomus remus during mass rearing in the laboratory and to compare morphometric patterns and biological characteristics over 15 generations, as well as the influence of different food sources on the parasitoid's biology, with a view to mass production of insects with better performance in the field.
