Development and diapause induction of the Indian meal moth, Plodia interpunctella (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) at different photoperiods
(2020)Diapause concerns the fascinating phenomenon in the biology of insect development which allows better understanding the local adaptation and phenotypic plasticity to seasonal variations in environment. There is lot of ... -
Effect of larval density on development and diapause of Sesamia nonagrioides (Lef.) (Lep., Noctuidae) under laboratory conditions
(1999)The effect of larval density on development and diapause of Sesamia nonagrioides (Lef.) was examined. Larvae were grown on an artificial diet at densities of five, 10, 20, 30 and 40 larvae per box, under two environmental ... -
Effects of photoperiod and relative humidity on diapause termination and post-winter development of Rhagoletis cerasi pupae
(2020)The European cherry fruit fly, Rhagoletis cerasi (Diptera: Tephritidae), is a univoltine species that undergoes obligatory summer-winter diapause at pupal stage in the soil (2-5 cm) beneath host trees. To study the effects ... -
Insecticidal effect of phosphine for the control of different life stages of the khapra beetle, Trogoderma granarium (Coleoptera: Dermestidae)
(2021)The khapra beetle, Trogoderma granarium Everts (Coleoptera: Dermestidae), is a serious pest of stored products worldwide, and a quarantine insect for many countries. The use of phosphine gas has been proven to be effective ... -
Local adaptation, intrapopulation adult emergence patterns, sex and prolonged diapause regulate the rate of postwinter development in pupae of the European cherry fruit fly
(2017)We used the European cherry fruit fly, Rhagoletis cerasi (Diptera: Tephritidae), an oligophagous, univoltine species that overwinters as pupae, to determine the geographical variation in postwinter development of pupae ... -
Obligate annual and successive facultative diapause establish a bet-hedging strategy of Rhagoletis cerasi (Diptera: Tephritidae) in seasonally unpredictable environments
(2017)To cope with temporal and spatial heterogeneity of habitats, herbivorous insects in the temperate zone usually enter diapause that facilitates synchronization of their life cycle with specific stages of host plants, such ... -
Overwintering Survival and Spring Emergence of Helicoverpa armigera (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in Northern Greece
(2010)Overwintering survival of Helicoverpa annigera (Hubner) was studied under field conditions during the winter of 2004-2005 and 2005-2006 to clarify whether a local population of this insect is established in northern Greece. ...
