Floral resources support several ecosystem services in agroecosystems, such as pollination or biological control. Many beneficial organisms feed on nectar or pollen for an important part of their life cycle. Providing adequate and sufficient floral resources through the conservation of spontaneous flowering vegetation may be a strategy to improve biological pest control. However, the role of spontaneous flowering plant species has mainly been evaluated in the recruitment of natural enemies. Cascading effects on pest regulation and damage reduction are rarely studied. Here we evaluated the effect of spontaneous flowering vegetation on pest regulation in 18 Mediterranean apple orchards. We focused on two main apple pests, Cydia pomonella and Dysaphis plantaginea, and on two groups of their natural enemies depending on floral resources: hoverflies and parasitoid wasps. We combined generalised linear mixed models and piecewise structural equation models to test for direct and indirect effects of spontaneous flowering plant species on beneficial insects (hoverflies, parasitoid wasps, wild bees and honeybees) and on pest regulation. We also tested for potential negative interactions between honeybees and hoverflies, parasitoid wasps or wild bees. There was a positive and significant effect of insect-pollinated flowers on hoverflies, parasitoid wasps and bees, but small cascading effects on D. plantaginea or C. pomonella density and associated damage. There was no significant relationship between honeybees and hoverflies, parasitoid wasps or wild bees. The reduction of D. plantaginea infestation was partially mediated by hoverfly abundance. Furthermore, we observed effects of spontaneous flowering vegetation on pest regulation and damage reduction independent of hoverfly and parasitoid wasp abundances. These results highlight the importance of conserving floral resources to support biological control of apple pests. Further studies are needed to better understand interactions between spontaneous flowering vegetation and crop management practices to promote sustainable pest regulation strategies.
