Life history traits of B. tabaci Q on healthy vs. TYLCV-infected Datura stramonium.

(A) Development time (from egg to adult) based on 12 replicates. (B) Female body length (from head to tip of abdomen) based on 50 replicates. (C) Male body length (from head to tip of abdomen) based on 50 replicates. (D) Survival rate (the total number of emerged adult whiteflies/the total number of eggs) based on 12 replicates. (E) Longevity (from newly emerged adult until its death) based on 30 replicates. (F) Fecundity (the total number of eggs laid by each female) based on 30 replicates. Values are means ± SE. Within each panel, different letters indicate significant differences between treatments (P < 0.05).
