Interspecific competition among aphid parasitoids: molecular approaches reveal preferential exploitation of parasitized hosts
Abstract When a guild of species exploit the same limited resources, interspecific competition induces the exclusion of inferior competitors, in which case, interspecific recognition mechanisms are needed. Here, we address resource partitioning and interspecific competition among three main solitary...
