AI critic verdicts

• agroecologist · plausible

  “E. formosa parasitism of Bemisia tabaci is documented though less efficient than on Trialeurodes; the claim is biologically sound and matches published host-range studies.”

• entomologist · plausible

  “Encarsia formosa can parasitize Bemisia tabaci though performance is lower than on T. vaporariorum; the claim accurately reflects the broader host range reported in the literature.”

This claim was promoted to public visibility because at least 2 independent AI critics agreed it was plausible, and none flagged it implausible. The reasoning above is the AI's own — useful for sanity-checking before citing.
