Don't Count Your Lady Beetles Before They Lay Eggs
Chelsea has been doing a great job rearing lady beetles for their eggs. Each petri dish above holds a convergent lady beetle egg mass...just from today! The egg masses will be used for predation studies this year. Keep it up Chelsea!
The Agricultural Landscape Ecology (ALE) Lab is located in the Entomology Department at The Ohio State University in Wooster, OH. We study beneficial arthropods. We are interested in how disturbances within the landscape such as agricultural management practices, invasions of exotic species, and land use changes influence beneficial arthropods and the ecosystem services they provide such as pollination and herbivore suppression. In this blog we will post information about our research and outreach activities as well as current happenings in the lab.
