Abstract
⺠Aphid-resistant soybeans negatively affect the parasitoid Aphidius colemani. ⺠In choice and no-choice tests, parasitism rates were higher on susceptible plants. ⺠Negative effects were both direct and indirect. ⺠Direct effects included increased handling time and reduced preference by wasps. ⺠Indirect effects included decreased offspring survivorship and body weight.
