Characteristics of successful natural enemies in models of biological control of insect pests.

J R Beddington, C A Free, J H Lawton.   

Abstract

Biological control of insect pests is characterised by a persistent, strong reduction in the pest population following the introduction of a natural enemy. Analysis of mathematical models suggests that differential exploitation of patches of the pest in a spatially heterogeneous environment provides the most likely mechanism to account for known successes.
