The brown marmorated stink bug Halyomorpha halys is a polyphagous insect, which has a devastating impact on agricultural production in many countries. The alteration of symbiont vertical transmission, by removing symbionts from stink bug eggs (symbiotic control), has been recently introduced in control programmes against this insect. A major advantage of this strategy is the compatibility with natural enemies, since it allows an insecticide-free approach that is not harmful to other agroecosystem components. However, the effect of anti-symbiont products on parasitism by egg parasitoids is still unexplored. Here, we investigated the impact on parasitism by native (Anastatus bifasciatus, Ooencyrtus telenomicida and Trissolcus kozlovi) and exotic (Trissolcus japonicus and Trissolcus mitsukurii) parasitoids that attack H. halys eggs, after treatment with the micronutrient biocomplex Dentamet®, used for symbiotic control. The native wasp species were tested in no-choice bioassays, showing that treatment of the egg masses did not affect emergence percentages, but the non-reproductive effects were often reduced by the biocomplex. The exotic species T. japonicus and T. mitsukurii were used in no-choice and paired choice bioassays, showing an opposite influence of Dentamet® on emergence percentage and preference in the two species. No-choice tests indicated the highest successful parasitoid emergence on biocomplex-treated egg masses for T. japonicus, while no preference in the paired comparison with eggs treated with water or untreated. In contrast, T. mitsukurii displayed the lowest parasitism after Dentamet® treatment in no-choice tests, and preferred egg masses without Dentamet® in paired choice tests. We did not record any natural symbiont acquisition by the parasitoids emerged from H. halys egg masses, indicating that the wasp fitness is very unlikely to be altered by dysbiotic effects resulting from treatments. Therefore, our results support a further implementation of symbiotic control in different crops in combination with biological control, as sustainable options for H. halys integrated pest management.
