Simulation of the temperature-dependent developmental response of the invasive fall armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda via phenology modeling

Puntos clave

• The developmental response of the invasive fall armyworm is significantly affected by temperature.
• Key evidence shows that varying temperature impacts different life stages of the fall armyworm, with a particular emphasis on larval development.
• This simulation employs phenology modeling to assess temperature effects on the invasive fall armyworm's life cycle across various environments.
• Findings indicate critical ecological implications due to climate adaptability of the fall armyworm, especially in agricultural regions.
