Strength of enemy release from parasitoids is context-dependent in the invasive African Fig Fly, <i>Zaprionus indianus</i>

2024-07-13

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the mechanisms underlying the success of biological invasions is essential to employ effective prediction and management strategies. Escape from natural enemies in invaded regions (enemy release hypothesis, ERH) and increased competitive ability are hallmarks of invasive species; however, these two processes are rarely studied within the same context. Here, we examined the effect of enemy release on...
