The impact of pests and diseases on agricultural crops has been amplified due to global environmental changes, resulting in an estimated adverse effect 1.4 trillion dollars, which is approximately 5% the world's gross domestic product. Research was conducted various species parasitic entomophages, such as Aphidius matricaria Hal, gifuensis Ashm, Lysiphlebus japonica Tokawa, ervi fabarum Marsh, ...

the functional response of aphidius ervi to different sitobion avenae densities on two wheat cultivars (sardary and alvand) was examined in laboratory conditions. experiments were carried out in test tubes on an f2 lab generation without wheat clusters and also on f2 and f5 generations in pots using wheat clusters. in the tubes, female wasps were exposed to aphid densities of 2, 4, 7, 14, 28, 3...
