Development and Reproduction of the Burdock-infesting Aphid, <i>Uroleucon gobonis</i>(Matsumura), and the Effects of Insecticide Application on Aphid Densities
Abstract:The developmental times and reproduction of the burdock-infesting aphid, Uroleucon gobonis (Matsumura ) , were determined at different temperatures. The developmental zero, effective cumulative temperature, and intrinsic optimum temperature for the development of this aphid were estimated to be 5.27 C, 141.71 degree-days, and 19.22 C, respectively. This species had growth retardation at 27 C, and no nymphs reached the adult stage at 32 C. Like other aphids, it was found to be strong against low temperatures an… Show more
