Table 1. Results of logistic regression for different life stages of O. strigicollis against different prey densities.

The negative values of linear coefficient for both life stages of O. strigicollis fed on different densities of two whitefly species described type II functional response curve. P-value ≥ 0.05 is considered as significant. Goodness of fit test with p-value ≤ 0.05 is best fitted.
