Effects of Temperatures on the Development of Liriomyza huidobrensis (Blanchard) (Diptera: Agromyzidae)
The development of Liriomyza huidobrensis (Blanchard), an economic pest of wide range of field crops and ornamental plants, was studied under laboratory conditions at six constant temperatures (10, 15, 20, 25, 27 and 30oC). The total development period decreased with increasing temperatures between 15 and 27oC. In 10oC, eggs did not hatch and in 30oC, pupa did not survive. So, it may be assumed that these temperatures fall outside the development. Linear regression was used to describe the relationship between development rate and temperature. For total immature development (egg to adult) required 250 degree-days (DD) above the threshold of 9.75oC. The developmental data were fitted to a nonlinear temperature-dependent model (Lactin-1) for best described of development. Development rates of males and females did not differ in 20 and 25oC. High immature mortality was recorded in 27oC. Sex ratio of the surviving individuals was 0.62 from this study. Thermal requirements and temperature thresholds can be used to forecast the occurrence, number of generations and population dynamics of L. huidobrensis.
