Review of impacts of grassland fragmentation on grasshopper outbreaks and natural enemy insect diversity
Grassland habitat fragmentation leads to changes in the size,connectivity,and structure of grassland habitats,which is one of the primary causes of the decline in grassland biodiversity. The frag-mentation has potential impacts on locust outbreaks and the reduction of their natural enemy insect di-versity. This paper employs bibliometric analysis to statistically examine relevant domestic and interna-tional literature,with a focus on summarizing the effects of grassland habitat fragmentation on locust outbreaks and their natural enemy insects. It also provides perspectives on enhancing the control capac-ity of natural enemy insects,reducing locust population outbreaks,and increasing the diversity of natu-ral enemy insects.
