Fig. 5. Effect of sugar feeding on JH biosynthesis by males that were previously starved.

Fig. 5

Three groups of virgin males were fed either a 20% sucrose solution for 7 days (20%), water for 7 days (0%) or water for 6 days and then given 20% sucrose for a day (0% + 20%). JH synthesis was evaluated at 7 days for the three groups. JH synthesis is expressed as fmol/CA/h. Bars represent the means ± SEM of 4 to 16 independent replicates of groups of 4 CA. Different letters above the columns indicate significant differences among treatments (one way ANOVA p < 0.05, with Tukey’s test of multiple comparisons).
