Article Synopsis
  • Habrobracon hebetor is a key parasitoid for controlling olive leaf moth populations, but insecticides can negatively impact beneficial insects.
  • The study investigates the effects of three insect growth regulators (IGRs) on the olive leaf moth and its parasitoid, finding pyriproxyfen to be the most toxic to the moth but relatively harmless to the parasitoid.
  • Although IGR treatments slightly reduced survival rates and reproductive success in H. hebetor, the overall population growth potential remained positive, suggesting that these IGRs might be compatible with the parasitoid's lifecycle.

Article Synopsis
  • Palpita forficifera is a significant pest affecting olive trees in Brazil, and managing it is challenging due to a lack of effective control products.
  • This study examined the pest's population dynamics and the presence of parasitoid species in three different olive orchards in Rio Grande do Sul, during the 2017/18 and 2018/19 harvests.
  • Findings showed that pest infestations varied by season and location, with notable parasitoid activities helping in its natural control, highlighting the need for effective management strategies that utilize these natural enemies.
