New Paper: Phylogenetics and genetic diversity of the Cotesia flavipes complex of parasitoid wasps (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), biological control agents of lepidopteran stemborers

A new paper involving Environment Institute members Kate Muirhead, Steve Donnellan and Andy Austin, as well as Nick Murphy from La Trobe University and Nader Sallam from BSES Limited has recently been published in the Journal Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution.

The paper is titled ‘Phylogenetics and genetic diversity of the Cotesia flavipes complex of parasitoid wasps (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), biological control agents of lepidopteran stemborers’ and analyzes the genetic variation and relationships among populations of the Cotesia flavipes complex of parasitoid wasps.

Read the paper to find out more and read about the findings.
