Structure, function and management of semi‐natural habitats for conservation biological control: a review of European studies
Different semi‐natural habitats occur on farmland, and it is the vegetation's traits and
structure that subsequently determine their ability to support natural enemies and their …

Biodiversity enhances the multitrophic control of arthropod herbivory
Arthropod herbivores cause substantial economic costs that drive an increasing need to
develop environmentally sustainable approaches to herbivore control. Increasing plant …

Plant species loss decreases arthropod diversity and shifts trophic structure
Plant diversity is predicted to be positively linked to the diversity of herbivores and predators
in a foodweb. Yet, the relationship between plant and animal diversity is explained by a …
