Article Synopsis
  • * Conservation biological control (CBC) is essential for integrated pest management but has not been widely adopted; approaches have often been inconsistent and lacking in strategy.
  • * The QuESSA project developed a predictive scoring system for five habitat types to assess their potential for biological control, revealing context-specific results and suggesting tailored habitat designs to enhance natural enemy support for specific agricultural needs.

Background And Aims: A model of fruit surface conductance to water vapour diffusion driven by fruit growth is proposed. It computes the total fruit conductance by integrating each of its components: stomata, cuticle and cracks.

Methods: The stomatal conductance is computed from the stomatal density per fruit and the specific stomatal conductance.
