ABSTRACT
Many studies have reported an increase in male reproductive disorders due to the environment. Despite their ecological importance invertebrates have been poorly studied; they are yet affected in the same way as vertebrates by changes in the environment. Different stresses made on parasitic wasps are able to induce a male subfertility. These insects are easy to rear in the laboratory, used to control insect pests, and have other benefits presented in this article. Parasitic wasps are good models for understanding the mechanisms inducing subfertility and may provide new areas for research in vertebrates.
