Values represent mean larval weight ± SE (mg).
Means followed by the same superscript within columns are not significantly different (P<0.05) by one-way ANOVA test. Number in parenthesis indicates the number of living larvae out of 5 that were weighed.
data was not included in the statistical analysis at 7 days since only 1 larvae was weighed, the other 4 pupated.
