    Coordinated molecular and ecological adaptations underlie a highly successful parasitoid

    Lan Pang, Gangqi Fang ... Jianhua Huang
    The parasitoid Trichopria drosophilae has evolved both molecular adaptions (venom proteins and teratocytes) and ecological strategies (tolerance of intraspecific and avoidance of interspecific competition) to successfully parasitize Drosophila suzukii.
