Femur muscle carbon (n = 16 for clutch 1; n = 47 for clutch 2) and total carbohydrates (n = 13 for clutch 1; n = 28 for clutch 2) in sham-operated and ovariectomized (=OVX) lubber grasshoppers. Clutch 1 is the period from adult molt to first oviposition in sham-operated females, and clutch 2 is the period from first oviposition to second oviposition in sham-operated females. Ovariectomized females had higher levels of both carbon and carbohydrate than sham-operated females.
