“…The first successful examples of genetic improvement of biocontrol agents were intended to increase their pesticide resistance (Hoy and Knop, 1981;Hoy, 1985Hoy, , 1986Hoy, , 1990Rosenheim and Hoy, 1988;Havron et al, 1991). More recently, intraspecific behavioral variations are of interest to researchers especially in nematodes (Segal and Glazer, 2000;Shapiro-Ilan et al, 2003), mites (Pels and Sabelis, 1999;Jia et al, 2002;Maeda and Liu, 2006;Nachappa et al, 2010Nachappa et al, , 2011, coccinelids (Tourniaire et al, 2000;Lommen et al, 2008;Seko and Miura, 2009;Adachi-Hagimori et al, 2011) and parasitoid wasps (Baya et al, 2007;Kruitwagen et al, 2018).…”
