    Spatial population dynamics of a specialist aphid parasitoid, Lysiphlebus hirticornis Mackauer (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Aphidiinae): evidence for philopatry and restricted dispersal 

    Nyabuga, Franklin N.; Loxdale, Hugh D.; Heckel, David G.; Weisser, Wolfgang W. (Macmillan Publishers Limited, 2010-01)
    Within insect communities, the population ecology of organisms representing higher trophic levels, for example, hymenopterous parasitoids, may be influenced by the structure of their insect hosts. Using microsatellite ...

    Stay at home aphids: comparative spatial and seasonal metapopulation structure and dynamics of two specialist tansy aphid species studied using microsatellite markers 

    Nyabuga, Franklin N.; Loxdale, Hugh D.; Schöfl, Gerhard; Wiesner, Kerstin R.; Heckel, David G.; Weisser, Wolfgang W. (The Linnean Society of London, 2011-06)
    Two tansy-feeding aphids, Macrosiphoniella tanacetaria (MA) and Metopeurum fuscoviride (ME), were studied at a small spatial scale in and around Jena (< 80 km2) using polymorphic microsatellite markers. Both species were ...

    Coevolutionary fine-tuning: evidence for genetic tracking between a specialist wasp parasitoid and its aphid host in a dual metapopulation interaction 

    Nyabuga, Franklin N.; Loxdale, Hugh D.; Heckel, David G.; Weisser, Wolfgang W. (Cambridge University Press, 2012-04)
    In the interaction between two ecologically-associated species, the population structure of one species may affect the population structure of the other. Here, we examine the population structures of the aphid Metopeurum ...

    The 'Cake on the plate' syndrome ... and how specialist tansy aphids avoid extinction by hungry predators and parasitoids: insights from the use of polymorphic microsatellite markers 

    Nyabuga, Franklin N.; Loxdale, Hugh D.; Weisser, Wolfgang W. (2008)
    It was initially shown from 12.2 m high suction trap aerial density data and later confirmed using polymorphic molecular markers (initially allozymes, later high resolution DNA markers, especially microsatellites), that ...

    The 'Cake on the plate' syndrome ... and how specialist tansy aphids avoid extinction by hungry predators and parasitoids: insights from the use of polymorphic microsatellite markers 

    Nyabuga, Franklin N.; Loxdale, Hugh D.; Weisser, Wolfgang W. (2016-07)
    It was initially shown from 12.2 m high suction trap aerial density data and later confirmed using polymorphic molecular markers (initially allozymes, later high resolution DNA markers, especially microsatellites), that ...

    Temporal genetic structuring of a specialist parasitoid, Lysiphlebus hirticornis Mackauer (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) attacking a specialist aphid on tansy 

    Nyabuga, Franklin N.; Loxdale, Hugh D.; Heckel, David G.; Weisser, Wolfgang W. (The Linnean Society of London, 2011)
    In insect species characterized by inbreeding, limited dispersal, and a metapopulation structure, high genetic differentiation and reduced genetic diversity within local populations are expected. Using the model ...
