Hello! Does anyone have knowledge of publicly available research discussing the intrinsic growth rate of Spodoptera frugiperda maize? This seems basic ecological information that should be easily obtainable, yet I have not been able to locate it. Thanks to anyone for pointers!

Hello Jeannette:

In this paper you can find the population parameters including the intrinsic growth rate of Spodoptera frugiperda fed on maize.

Regards,

Luis Miguel
