Comparing parasitoid life histories

Article English OPEN
Mayhew, Peter John;
  • Subject: 1100
Species and clades are characterized by their unique combinations, or suites, of different life history traits. In parasitoids, traits include a core group common to other organisms, and a parasitoid-specific group. These organize into several sets of mutually covarying... View more
