The biological control of the weed Acacia longifolia by the gall wasp Trichilogaster acaciaelongfoliae: a study of a plant-insect interaction
Weeds are responsible for about 30 percent of all crop losses worldwide, but all weed research, including biological control, receives only about 10% of crop pest control support. The impact of weeds is insidious, diffuse, and complex Increased use of biological control may help to reduce the massiv...
