Factors Affecting Progeny Production and Sex Ratio of <i>Gryon aetherium</i> (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae), a Candidate Biological Control Agent for <i>Bagrada hilaris</i> (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae)

Manipulating the factors that influence progeny production and sex ratio in parasitoids can help maximize the production of quarantine bioassays and/or mass releases. In a series of experiments, we studied the effects of several factors on offspring production and sex ratio in the parasitoid <i&g...
