Trophic assimilation efficiency markedly increases at higher trophic levels in four-level host–parasitoid food chain
Trophic assimilation efficiency (conversion of resource biomass into consumer biomass) is thought to be a limiting factor for food chain length in natural communities. In host–parasitoid systems, which account for the majority of terrestrial consumer interactions, a high trophic assimilation efficie...
