<b>Biological control of phytophagous arthropods in the physic nut tree <i>Jatropha curcas</i> L. in Brazil

Jatropha curcas has a high biofuel oil content, which could replace polluting fuels, and has great potential for large scale monoculture cultivation in the conventional system. We explored the occurrence, spatial distribution and the functional response of the main phytophagous species of this plant...
