Immune system modulation & virus transmission during parasitism identified by multi-species transcriptomics of a declining insect biocontrol system
Abstract Background The Argentine stem weevil (ASW, Listronotus bonariensis) is a significant pasture pest in Aotearoa New Zealand, primarily controlled by the parasitoid biocontrol agent Microctonus hyperodae. Despite providing effective control of ASW soon after release, M. hyperodae parasitism ra...
