Temperature-dependent development of the sweet potato whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius), Q biotype was examined on three host plants (bell pepper, oriental melon, and eggplant) at nine temperatures (15, 17.5, 20, 22.5, 25, 27.5, 30, 32.5, and 35 °C). Egg development time (least squares [LS]-mean ± LS-standard error [SE]) varied from 31.78 ± 0.29 days at 15 °C to 4.93 ± 0.25 days at 32.5 °C on bell pepper, from 21.27 ± 0.20 days at 17.5 °C to 4.02 ± 0.23 days at 32.5 °C on oriental melon, and from 26.92 ± 0.19 days at 15 °C to 5.14 ± 0.18 days at 30 °C on eggplant. Nymph development time (LS-mean ± LS-SE) varied from 76.54 ± 0.96 days at 15 °C to 12.96 ± 0.68 days at 27.5 °C on bell pepper, from 48.78 ± 0.38 days at 17.5 °C to 11.32 ± 0.38 days at 32.5 °C on oriental melon, and from 73.08 ± 1.23 days at 15 °C to 11.89 ± 0.70 days at 27.5 °C on eggplant. A non-linear relationship between developmental rate and temperature was described by the Taylor model, and developmental variation was described by the two-parameter Weibull function.
