Phylogenetics patterns of host utilization in two tropical Microgastrine parasitoid genera (Hymenoptera: Braconidae)
… trapping, generally lack information regarding host utilization. Even within the species for which host data is available, there are commonly too few accurate records to provide a realistic depiction of host breadth. As a result, detailed phylogenetic studies including both realistic subsets of …

Integrating Molecular, Ecological and Morphological Data to Explore the Biodiversity of Microgastrine Parasitoid Wasps
… understand species relationships and patterns in host utilization, a phylogeny was reconstructed for Apanteles, the largest genus. A five-gene phylogeny recovered a strong repeating pattern of clades restricted to and diversifying on distinct host taxonomic groups. Integrating CO1 DNA sequences …

Evaluation of the potential of Pteromalus puparum (L.) (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) for suppression of the imported cabbageworm and parasitism of the diamondback moth
… emerged as adults, indicating efficient host utilization. Most parasite mortality within the host occurred in the larval stage; mean adult parasite emergence per host for 1983 and 1984 was 52.3 with a 1:1 sex ratio. <i>P. puparum</i> parasitized either host sex, producing equal …

Determining rumen degradable protein requirements in growing beef cattle
… populations digest and alter feedstuffs before host utilization. Burroughs et al. (1974) proposed the metabolizable protein (MP) system which accounts for microbial protein supply as well as the RUP fraction delivered to the small intestine unaltered. This system is considered a more effective …
