Abstract
Developmental rate of immature stages and age-specific fertility of females of codling moth at constant temperatures was modeled using non-linear models. The equations of Enkegaard, Analytis, and Bieri 1 and 2 were evaluated based on the value of adjusted R2 (R2adj) and Akaike information criterion (AIC) besides coefficient of determination (R2) and residual sum of squares (RSS). All models have goodness of fit to data especially for development [R2, R2adj, RSS and AIC ranged 0.9673-0.9917, 0.8601-0.9861, 0.08-6.7x10-4 and (-75.29) – (-46.26) respectively]. Optimum temperature (Topt) and upper threshold (Tmax) were calculated accurately (Topt and Tmax ranged 29.9-31.2oC and 35.9-36.7oC) by all models. Lower temperature threshold (Tmin) was calculated accurately by Bieri-1 model (9,9-10,8oC) whereas Analytis model (7,0-8,4oC) underestimated it. As far as fertility is concerned the respective values were better fitted near the optimum temperature (in 30oC) [R2 ,R2adj, RSS and AIC ranged 0,6966-0,7744, 0,5756-0,6455, 2,44-3,33 x10-4 and (-9,15)-7,15 respectively].
