A model that simulates host and parasitoid population interactions, parasitism rates, and plant damage is described. BIOCONTROL-PARASITE can simulate many different species of phytophagus insects, parasitoids, and plants because specifics of the insect and plant biology are entered though menus at the beginning of a simulation.
Data from: Global Meta-Analysis of Cotton Yield and Weed Suppression from Cover Crops
To systematically evaluate cover crop effects on cotton yield and weed suppression, we conducted a random-effects meta-analysis investigating 10 moderating variables in 104 articles, yielding 1117 independent studies over 48 years.
