Transgenerational effects of buprofezin on population parameters of the F1 generation of A. gossypii whose parents (F0 generation) were treated with LC15 and LC30 concentrations compared to untreated control. r: intrinsic rate of increase (d−1), λ: finite rate of increase (d−1), R0: net reproductive rate (offspring/individual), T: mean generation time (d), GRR: gross reproductive rate were calculated using 100,000 bootstraps resampling.

Different letters within the same row show significant differences between control and buprofezin concentration groups (at the P < 0.05 level, paired bootstrap test using TWOSEX MS chart program).
