Olfactometer Responses of Convergent Lady Beetles <i>Hippodamia convergens</i> (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) to Odor Cues from Aphid-Infested Cotton Plants Treated with Plant-Associated Fungi

Olfactometer Responses of Convergent Lady Beetles <i>Hippodamia convergens</i> (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) to Odor Cues from Aphid-Infested Cotton Plants Treated with Plant-Associated Fungi

Microbes have the potential to affect multitrophic plant–insect–predator interactions. We examined whether cotton plants treated with potentially beneficial fungi affect interactions between cotton aphids <i>Aphis gossypii</i> and predatory lady beetles <i>Hippodamia convergens<...
