Parameter estimation for a temperature-dependent development model of Thrips palmi Karny (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)

Development of immature Thrips palmi Karny was investigated at 12.5, 15, 17.5, 20, 22.5, 25, 27.5, 30, 32.5, and 35 °C, 20–40% RH and a photoperiod of 14:10 (L:D) h. Developmental time decreased with increasing temperature up to 32.5 °C in all stages. The total developmental time was longest at 12.5...

Zusammenfassung:Development of immature Thrips palmi Karny was investigated at 12.5, 15, 17.5, 20, 22.5, 25, 27.5, 30, 32.5, and 35 °C, 20–40% RH and a photoperiod of 14:10 (L:D) h. Developmental time decreased with increasing temperature up to 32.5 °C in all stages. The total developmental time was longest at 12.5 °C (64.2 days) and shortest at 32.5 °C (9.2 days). The lower developmental threshold was 10.6, 10.6, 9.1, and 10.7 °C for egg, larva, prepupa, and pupa, respectively. The thermal constant required to complete the respective stage was 71.7, 59.2, 18.1, and 36.8DD. The lower threshold temperature and thermal constant were 10.6 °C and 183.3DD, respectively, for total immature development. The nonlinear relationship between developmental rate and temperature was well described by the modified Sharpe and DeMichele biophysical model ( r 2 = 0.905–0.998). The distribution of developmental completion of each stage was described by the 3-parameter Weibull function ( r 2 = 0.855–0.927). The temperature-dependent developmental models of T. palmi developed in this study could be used to predict its seasonal phenology in field and greenhouse vegetable crops.
