From Evolutionary Aspects of Zoophytophagy to Biological Control

Zoophytophagy (true omnivory) is a ubiquitous behavior. It allows plant-feeding predators to maximize their development by finding essential nutrients, and to survive when animal resources are scarce. In agroecosystems, some zoophytophagous predators are highly efficient biological control agents. H...
