Data of average development time in the table are means ± SE. aThe significant difference of average development time between 2 long-day photoperiods of 14:10 and 16:8 (L:D) h within the same population at the same temperature in by Student’s t-test (P < 0.05). The sample size for each treatment varied from 268 to 315. HN, Hanoi population; JY, Jiangyan population; CC, Changchun population.
