Tsai] The development, survivorship, and reproduction of silverleaf whitefly, Bemisia argentifolii Bellows & Perring, on eggplant at 6 constant temperatures (15, 20, 25, 27, 30, and 35°C) were studied. The development time from egg to adult varied from 105 d at 15°C to 14 d at 30°C. A common developmental threshold for all immature stages was estimated at 12.5°C. A nonlinear biophysical model describing the relationship between development rate and temperature was constructed. Low- and high-temperature inhibitions of 15—18°C and 30—35°C, respectively, for development of immature stage were derived from the model. The survivorship from egg to adult was 89% at 25°C; at 15 and 35°C, the survival percentages were 40 and 37%, respectively. The average longevity of adult females ranged from 44 d at 20°C to 10 d at 35°C. The oviposition (eggs per female) of B. argentifolii varied from 324 at 20°C to 22 at 35°C. Life table parameters were determined at 5 constant temperatures (20, 25, 27, 30, and 35°C). The intrinsic rates of natural increase (rm) for B. argentifolii at 25 and 27°C were the highest. Jackknife estimates of rm varied from 0.192 at 25 and 27°C to 0.073 at 35°C. The mean generation times of populations ranged from 46 d at 20°C to 18 d at 30°C. The adverse effects of high temperature (35°C) were evidenced by prolonged development, shortened adult longevity and reduced fecundity. The optimal range of temperature for B. argentifolii population growth was 20—30°C. The results of this study were compared with those reported for B. tabaci biotype B in Mississippi and B. tabaci biotype A in Arizona. © 1996 Entomological Society of America Arthropod Biology nationallicence Bemisia tabaci biotype B nationallicence sweetpotato whitefly nationallicence development nationallicence life table nationallicence temperature nationallicence Wang Kaihong Fort Lauderdale Research and Education Center, University of Florida, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33314. aut Tsai James H.
