Functional response of Harmonia axyridis preying on Acyrthosiphon pisum nymphs: the effect of temperature

Abstract In the current study, we investigated the functional response of Harmonia axyridis adults and larvae foraging on Acyrthosiphon pisum nymphs at temperatures between 15 and 35 °C. Logistic regression and Roger’s random predator models were employed to determine the type and parameters of the...
