Abstract The biological and life-history parameters of the leafhopper, Matsumuratettix hiroglyphicus (Matsumura), a vector of sugarcane white leaf phytoplasma, were studied on sugarcane host plants, at different constant temperatures, in the laboratory. The results revealed no complete life cycle development at extreme low and high temperatures of 20 °C and 38 °C, respectively. There was a significant decrease in adult longevity, and reduced developmental time from egg to adult, with increasing… CONTINUE READING
