Abstract

Chicory, Chicorium intybus L.is an important of medicinal plants and Aphis intybi Koch. is one of it's pests in early season. Some life table parameters of A. intybi were determined under natural (20- 33ºC and 35-80% RH) and laboratory (22 ± 2ºC, 65 ± 5% RH and a photoperiod of 14:10 h (L: D)) conditions. The experiment was carried out by rearing 20 aphid nymphs in leaf cages and their mortality and reproduction was recorded daily. The results indicated under natural condition A. intybi survivorship, fecundity, longevity, nymphal reproduction period and post nymphal reproduction period had shorter than laboratory condition, but nymphal developmental time in laboratory condition was shorter than natural condition. The results indicated, that different conditions (field and laboratory) had a significant effect on A. intybi life table parameters.
