“…The intrinsic rate of natural increase increased with temperature to a peak of 0.286 at 25°C (Table 3). This rate was much higher than that of other eriophyoid mites 2,15 and is nearly equal to that of Tetranychus ulticae (0.292) or T. kanzawai (0.268) 13 . These experiments were conducted at 30-33% relative humidity.…”

Developmental rates of Aculops lycopersici increased linearly as rearing temperature increased. A total of 81.2 degree-days above a developmental zero of 10.5°C were required to complete development from egg to adult emergence. Adult longevity decreased with increasing temperature. The highest intrinsic rate of natural increase was observed at 25°C as 0.253 per day. The population increased exponentially on greenhouse tomato plants and the intrinsic rate of natural increase was estimated to be 0.175 per day. A. lycopersici first reproduced on the released leaves then moved upward. The infestation caused great injury to the plants, with a large number of leaves turning brown and then drying up. The number of leaves, the plant height and the diameter of the main stem of the plants all decreased. Homeopronematus anconai naturally occurred on tomato plants. After the rapid population increase of H. anconai, the A. lycopersici population decreased sharply. An adult H. anconai consumed an average of 69.3 A. lycopersici deutonymphs per day in the laboratory. H. anconai was thought to be a prospective natural enemy of A. lycopersici.

“…Population growth of A. lycopersici is maximum at 25°C. The intrinsic rate of natural increase in P. oleivora peaked at 27°C as 0.114 (Allen et al, 1995) and that of Acaphylla theavagran was maximum at 27°C as 0.181 (Mizuta, 2000). The intrinsic rate of natural increase in A. lycopersici (0.286) was much higher than that of other eriophyoid mites.…”

The effect of constant temperature on the development, reproduction and population growth of Aculops lycopersici reared on a tomato leaflet was investigated. Survival rates from egg to adult were more than 69% at temperatures between 15°C and 27.5°C, but only 53% at 30°C. Developmental rates increased linearly as rearing temperature increased from 15°C to 27.5°C. A total of 81.2 degree-days above a developmental zero of 10.5°C were required to complete development from egg to adult emergence. Adult longevity decreased with increasing temperature. Fecundity was highest at 25°C with 51.7 eggs per female. The highest intrinsic rate of natural increase was observed at 25°C as 0.253 per day.
