Table 2. Dyar coefficients for genetic strains with different body sizes and development times (at 25°C and 100% diet).

Strain	n	Dyar coefficient	Maximum weight (grams (SEM))	Development time (days (SEM))
Dwarf (small/fast)	16	1.662	9.4 (0.22)	16.8 (0.07)
Giant (large/fast)	10	1.797	12.8 (0.42)	17.5 (0.05)
Wild-type (control)	13	1.720	10.8 (0.31)	19.1 (0.11)

Note: Dyar coefficients seem to be the same at all temperatures, diet qualities and body-size/development-time strains (c.f. Table 1). The biggest differences are in animals that have supernumerary instars.
