In this study, we investigated the effects of different diets on the development and reproduction of the predatory mite . The results show that feeding on citrus red mite () led to the fastest life cycle completion (6.9 ± 0.22 days), the longest oviposition period (26.19 ± 0.46 days), the greatest female longevity (42.03 ± 0.43 days), and the highest total number of eggs per female (45.63 ± 0.94 eggs). Feeding on cysts resulted in the highest oviposition rate (1.98 ± 0.04 eggs), a high total number of eggs per female (33.93 ± 0.36 eggs), and the highest intrinsic rate of increase (r = 0.242). The hatching rate did not differ significantly among the five types of food, and the proportion of females ranged from 60% to 65% across all diets.
在本研究中，我们调查了不同食物对捕食螨发育和繁殖的影响。结果表明，以柑橘红蜘蛛（）为食时，生命周期完成最快（6.9±0.22天），产卵期最长（26.19±0.46天），雌螨寿命最长（42.03±0.43天），每只雌螨的总产卵数最多（45.63±0.94枚卵）。以囊肿为食时，产卵率最高（1.98±0.04枚卵），每只雌螨的总产卵数较高（33.93±0.36枚卵），内禀增长率最高（r = 0.242）。五种食物类型的孵化率无显著差异，所有食物类型下雌螨比例在60%至65%之间。
