In insects, the outcome of intraspecific competition for food during development depends primarily upon larval density and larval sex, but effects will also depend on the particular trait under consideration and the species under study. When two or more parasitoids of the same or different species attack the same host, there is competition for monopolization of host resources. Interspecific Interactions in Phytophagous Insects: Competition Reexamined and Resurrected R F Denno, M S McClure, and , and J R Ott Annual Review of Entomology The Evolution and Dynamics of Intraspecific Predation G A Polis Competition Competition is the struggle for use of shared limiting resources . To help use insecticides more sparingly, the functional response and intraspecific competition of the FAW larvae were evaluated under the laboratory conditions. Intraspecific Competition of an Insect‐Resistant Transgenic Canola in Seed Mixtures Suresh Ramachandran Dep. It is the interactions between two organisms for nutrients, space, food, water, nesting sites . Their communication deals with signal emission and reception in the chemical, visual, auditory, and vibratory … Box 228, Reading RG6 2AJ, U.K. SUMMARY (1) Effects of intraspecific competition were studied experimentally in Calloso- By the mid 1980s the scientific community had responded to a plea for a Intraspecific competition in Zabrotes subfasciatus: Physiological and behavioral adaptations to different amounts of host Isabel R.V. of Entomology, Univ. competition in phytophagous insects had been added to the literature at this time, and the insect studies responsible for both the deification and demise of interspecific competition were overwhelmingly observational and pattern rather than process oriented. The phenomenon of colonialism which characterizes many insect groups is considered in terms of its potential effect on intraspecific competition. Example : competition between humming birds & insects for nectar . of Georgia, Athens, GA, 30602 USA 3. interspecific competition among insect parasitoids: field experiments with whiteflies as hosts in cotton Carlos E. Bográn Biological Control Laboratory, Department of Entomology, Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas 77843-2475 USA Teixeira Insect Nutrition and Feeding Behavior Laboratory, Department of Biology, Faculdade de Filosofia Ciências e Letras de Ribeirão Preto, Universidade de São Paulo, São Paulo Intraspecific competition is assumed to be a function of the number of distinct pair encounters between 2 individuals of differing colony origin. Insects exhibit intraspecific communication strategies during reproductive as well as social behaviors, such as parental, agonistic, and group spacing tactics. Immature development of parasitoid wasps is restricted to resources found in a single host that is often similar in size to the adult parasitoid. GIGA* AND R.H. SMITHt Department of Pure and Applied Zoology, University of Reading, P.O. INTRASPECIFIC COMPETITION IN THE BEAN WEEVILS CALLOSOBRUCHUS MACULATUS AND CALLOSOBRUCHUS RHODESIANUS (COLEOPTERA: BRUCHIDAE) BY D.P. Functional responses of the fall armyworm (FAW) larvae at each stage, and their intraspecific competition associated with cannibalism, provide insights into developing pest management strategies for the FAW.
