“…Previous and present results suggest that, the R o values vary according to the aphid species and biotypes, temperature degrees and / or cultivars & experimental methods. These differences in the net reproductive rate may have been caused by host plant effect as well as possibly aphid species and biotype (Tsai and Wanga, 2001;Özgökçe and Atlihan, 2005;Razmjou et al, 2006;Mirmohammadi et al, 2009;Taheri et al, 2010 andJahan et al, 2014). Our results show that R o and r m of the grapevine aphid on "Superior" grape variety ranged from 1.30 to 6.30 and 0.144 to 0.026, respectively, confirming the resistance of the noted variety to the aphid.…”

The effect of temperature on certain biological aspects and fertility life table of the grapevine aphid as a key of abiotic factor has been investigated. The experiments were conducted at four constant temperatures 17, 21, 24 and 27°C, 65 ± 5 % R.H. and 14 hrs. photophase. The tested individuals were reared and observed on young shoots of Vitis vinifera (Superior variety). The data revealed that aphids developed faster with increasing temperatures within the 17 -27 °C range. The grapevine aphid passed through four instars before reaching maturity. The nymphal development period varied significantly between temperatures, they lasted 15.5, 12.2, 7.3 and 5.4 days at 17, 21, 24 and 27°C, respectively. The theoretical lower developmental threshold (t 0 ) was 12.4 °C and 80.73 day-degrees were required for aphids to reach adulthood. The life table parameters differed at the tested temperatures. These parameters clarified the temperature effect on A. illinoisensis biology, where the largest R o, λ and r m were 6.30, 1.155 and 1.088 at 24, 24 and 21 °C, respectively. The range of generation time values (GT) recorded 27.39-10.53 days at the tested temperatures. As a result from the aspect of development and fecundity, A. illinoisensis had the best performance on 24°C and the worst on 17 and 27°C.

“…Their development requires knowledge of lethal temperatures (upper and lower) of insect species studied as well as data collected on each individual from birth to death (Nietschke et al, 2007). Several studies have already been conducted to evaluate the effect of temperature on the biology of B. brassicae (Abdel-Rahman et al;2011;Akinlosotu, 1977;DeLoach, 1974;Fathipour, Hosseini, Talebi, Moharamipour, & Asgari, 2005;Gupta, 2014;Satar, Kerstng, & Ulusoy, 2005); however, these studies do not include reaction norms in their studies. Therefore, the main objective of this work was to study and visualize the effect of temperature on the biological parameters of B. brassicae using mathematical models found in the Insect Life Cycle Modelling (ILCYM) software .…”

The cabbage aphid, Brevicoryne brassicae, is a pest of many plants of the Brassicaceae family including cabbage, Brassica oleracea Linnaeus, 1753. We investigated the effect of temperature on the biological parameters of B. brassicae using different temperature‐based models incorporated in the Insect Life Cycle Modelling (ILCYM) software. Nymphs of first stage were individually placed in the incubators successively set at 10°C, 15°C, 20°C, 25°C, 30°C, and 35°C; 75 ± 5% RH; and L12: D12‐hr photoperiods. We found that first nymph reached the adult stage after 18.45 ± 0.04 days (10°C), 10.37 ± 0.26 days (15°C), 6.42 ± 0.07 days (20°C), 5.076 ± 0.09 days (25°C), and 5.05 ± 0.10 days (30°C), and failed at 35°C. The lower lethal temperatures for B. brassicae were 1.64°C, 1.57°C, 1.56°C, and 1.62°C with a thermal constant for development of 0.88, 0.87, and 0.08, 0.79 degree/day for nymphs I, II, III, and IV, respectively. The temperatures 10, 30, and 35°C were more lethal than 15, 20, and 25°C. Longevity was highest at 10°C (35.07 ± 1.38 days). Fertility was nil at 30°C and highest at 20°C (46.36 ± 1.73 nymphs/female). The stochastic simulation of the models obtained from the precedent biological parameters revealed that the life table parameters of B. brassicae were affected by the temperature. The net reproduction rate was highest at 20°C and lowest at 30°C. The average generation time decreased from 36.85 ± 1.5 days (15°C) to 6.86 ± 0.1 days (30°C); the intrinsic rate of increase and the finite rate of increase were highest at 25°C. In general, the life cycle data and mathematical functions obtained in this study clearly illustrate the effect of temperature on the biology of B. brassicae. This knowledge will contribute to predicting the changes that may occur in a population of B. Brassiace in response to temperature variation.

“…On the following day, the plants were thoroughly examined and only one nymph was allowed to remain on each plant after the removal of the other nymphs and female aphids. Ten replicates were established and analyzed for each cultivar, this number of replicates is sufficient for this type of research [ 42 ]. The experiment was begun with one first nymphal instar per plant, and the total number of nymphs produced daily was counted.…”

Resistance and tolerance of ten carrot cultivars to the hawthorn-carrot aphid, Dysaphis crataegi Kalt., in Poland

Damage caused to cultivated carrots by the hawthorn-carrot aphid, Dysaphis crataegi Kalt. (Hemiptera: Aphididae) is one of the factors limiting carrot production in Poland. Planting resistant and tolerant cultivars could reduce yield losses due to the damage caused by this pest. This study was conducted to evaluate the resistance and/or tolerance of 10 carrot genotypes to hawthorn-carrot aphid. Their field resistance was determined under field conditions based on five indicators, namely, mean number of alates (migrants) per plant and mean percentage of plants colonized by them, mean seasonal number of aphids per plant, mean number of aphids per plant and mean percentage of infested plants at peak abundance. Antibiosis experiments were conducted under laboratory conditions and pre-reproductive, reproductive time, fertility, and demographic parameters, represented by the net reproduction rate (Ro), intrinsic rate of increase (rm) and mean generation time (T), were calculated. Five cultivars, Afro F1, Nipomo F1, Samba F1, White Satin F1, and Yellowstone showed field resistance. Antibiosis experiments revealed significant differences among the carrot cultivars in the length of the reproductive period, female fecundity in the time equal to the pre-reproduction time, and total progeny of hawthorn-carrot aphid. The intrinsic rate of natural increase (rm) for apterous aphids varied significantly, ranging between 0.181 (Nipomo F1) and 0.343 females/female/day (White Satin F1). Additionally, the estimated net reproductive rate (R0) was the lowest on Nipomo F1, and this genotype was determined to be resistant. Our results suggest that a very high density of trichomes on the leaf petioles (71.94 trichomes/cm2) could adversely affect the feeding, bionomy, and demographic parameters of hawthorn-carrot aphid on the cultivar Nipomo F1. In addition, Napa F1 and Kongo F1 demonstrated high tolerance. Considering all the results collectively, four genotypes, Afro F1, Kongo F1, Napa F1 and Nipomo F1, were relatively resistant/tolerant to the hawthorn-carrot aphid.
