Cotton plant strain | No. of larvae | No. (%) of pupae recovered | Days to pupation (mean ± 95% CI) | Pupal wt (mg) (mean ± 95% CI) |
---|---|---|---|---|
Control | 50 | 18 (36) | 28 ± 2 | 139 ± 14 (female), 182 ± 14 (male) |
BollGard II | 98 | 27 (28) | 36 ± 1 | 148 ± 13 (female), 186 ± 16 (male) |
P value | 0.35b | <0.01c | 0.38 (female), 0.73 (male)c |
One hundred percent emergence of pupae was observed for both groups.
Calculated by the chi-square test.
