Competitive interactions in insect parasitoids: effects of microbial symbionts across tritrophic levels.

Current opinion in insect science - 1 Feb 2023

Abstract excerpt

Competition for hosts is a common ecological interaction in insect parasitoids. In the recent years, it has become increasingly evident that microorganisms can act as 'hidden players' in parasitoid ecology. In this review, we propose that parasitoid competition should take into consideration the microbial influence. In particular, we take a tritrophic perspective and discuss how parasitoid competition can be...
