Projects
Research with Nasonia
Nasonia (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) is a genus of small, haplodiploid, parasitoid wasps that lay their eggs in pupae of various fly species. We use the four Nasonia species (N. vitripennis, N. longicornis, N. giraulti and N. oneida) as a model system.
For more information on the biology of Nasonia see here.
Behavioural Ecology
Currently we are working on several aspects of Nasonia behaviour. We utilize various methods from behavioral and chemical ecology to study the prevalence of reproductive strategies in male Nasonia.
