The original version of the article was inadvertently published with the errors in textual, equations, references, tables and figures. The corrected texts are given below:

In Data analysis section, the second equation should read as:

$$T = \left( {{\mathrm{ln}}\,R_0} \right){\mathrm{/}}r.$$

In the same section, the para should read as:

In addition to life table parameters, age-stage specific survival rate s_xj (where, x = age and j = stage), age specific fecundity m_x, age-stage specific fecundity f_xj, age specific maternity l_xm_x, age-stage specific life expectancy e_xj (Chi and Su 2006), age-stage specific reproductive value v_xj (Tuan et al. 2014a, b), APOP (adult pre-ovipositional period), and TPOP (total pre-ovipositional period), for all treatments were analyzed by a computer software TWOSEX-MSChart (Chi 2018) based on age-stage, two sex life table theory (Chi 1988; Chi and Liu 1985). Variances and standard errors were assessed using bootstrap (100,000 replicates) (Efron and Tibshirani 1993).

In Table 2, the legend should read as, “Standard errors were estimated by using bootstrap technique with 100,000 resampling. Differences between sexes were compared with paired bootstrap test. Means followed by a different letter indicate significant difference between treatments (P < 0.05).”

Table 3 legend should read as, “Standard errors were estimated by using bootstrap technique with 100,000 resampling. Differences between sexes were compared with paired bootstrap test. Means followed by a different letter indicate significant difference between treatments (P < 0.05). TPOP Total pre-oviposition period; APOP Adult pre-oviposition period.”

Legend of Table 4 should read as, “Standard errors were estimated by using bootstrap technique with 100,000 resampling. Means followed by a different letter indicate significant difference between treatments (P < 0.05). T = Mean generation time; R₀ = Net reproductive rate: r = Intrinsic rate of increase: λ = Finite rate of increase.”
