Abstract:
The negative binomial distribution with density-dependent k was used to test and describe the degree of aggregation involved in the parasitization of nematodes in Otiorhynchus sulcatus, Galleria mellonella, and Spodoptera exigua at 9 and 20C. The level of aggregation was greater in O. sulcatus then in the other 2 hosts |
