Abstract
A higher percentage of twospotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch, eggs hatch and the hours to 50% hatch is shorter at higher constant temperatures and humidities. Humidities with a saturation deficit (SD) from 5 mmHg to 40 mmHg were tested for temperatures of 25°, 30°, and 35°C.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
