Abstract
⺠Little is known about how to promote biological control in rice crops. ⺠Anagrus spp. parasitoids are known to attack rice planthoppers, serious pests. ⺠Olfactometer studies showed which flowers attract and which repel two Anagrus spp. ⺠Sesame nectar improved longevity, fecundity and handling time in Anagrus nilaparvatae. ⺠Sesame sown on rice bunds could improve management of rice planthopers.
