Functional response and consumption rate of Orius laevigatus (Hemiptera: Anthocoridae) feeding on the melon aphid Aphis gossypii (Hemiptera: Aphididae) at three different temperatures
In this study, the effect of three temperatures was investigated on the functional response of Orius laevigatus to Aphis gossypii in climatic chambers at 20, 25, and 30 ± 1 °C, 60 ± 5% RH, and 16:8 h photoperiod. Different densities of first and second instar nymphs of A. gossypii (2, 4, 8, 16, 32,...
