Reducing the environmental complexity and increasing biomass of cultivated plants offer favorable conditions for pest species in conventional systems. Among biological control strategies, the restoration of vegetation diversity in agroecosystems and the adoption of management strategies aiming to reduce impacts on natural enemy populations are practices that can be employed in different types of farming systems. Much of the conservative biological control efforts are focused on maintaining populations of parasitoids and predators. However, pathogens represent key mortality factors in the regulating pest populations in crops. The maintenance of indigenous plants aiming to increment populations of predators and parasitoids, may also promote t...
