Optimizing the Use of Basil as a Functional Plant for the Biological Control of Aphids by <i>Chrysopa pallens</i> (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) in Greenhouses

Optimizing the Use of Basil as a Functional Plant for the Biological Control of Aphids by <i>Chrysopa pallens</i> (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) in Greenhouses

Effective biological control agents that can provide sustainable pest control need to be researched in further detail; functional plants (or non-crop insectary plants), in particular, are garnering increased research interest.
