A data frame with 7 rows and 5 columns.
The workflow is reproducible and available in /data-raw folder of the
mappestRisk GitHub repository,
which includes both the original summarized data set -satar_data.xlsx-
and the R script with the dev. days to dev. rate conversion
in prepare_aphid.R.

Temperature treatments (ºC).
Development days (i.e., days to fulfill development requirements from a life-stage to the following)
Rate of Development (1/days), the reciprocal of Development days, see dev_days
Life stage or instar evaluated. In this case, only data of the whole immature stages (i.e., nymphs) were used
