Fig 6. Dependence of Gompertz parameters on initial szie and temperature.

Fig 6

Effect of initial size (natural log of mass) and temperature on the values of Gompertz parameters c (left panel) and d (right panel) in the wild-type strain. The coefficients for the regression are: for parameter c, using the natural logarithm of initial mass of an instar, k1 = 0.0824, k2 = 0.0344, k3 = -0.0049, k4 = -0.3330, r2 = 0.986, p<0.0001; for parameter d, k1 = -0.0157, k2 = 0.2899, k3 = -0.0068, k4 = -3.9937, r2 = 0.985, p<0.0001.
