Insights into aphid prey consumption by ladybirds: Optimising field sampling methods and primer design for high throughput sequencing.

Elucidating the diets of insect predators is important in basic and applied ecology, such as for improving the effectiveness of conservation biological control measures to promote natural enemies of crop pests. Here, we investigated the aphid diet of two common aphid predators in Central European ag...
