TABLE 1.
Test | Generation | Number of larvae | Larval survival (%) | Pupation (%) | Eclosion (%) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
−2°C | July | 22 a | 22 (100) | 14 (64) | 12 (55) |
−6°C | July | 10 | 7 (70) | 6 (60) | 3 (30) |
August | 17 | 17 (100) | 17 (100) | 0 (0) | |
−8°C | July | 8 | 1 (12.5) | 1 (12.5) | 1 (12.5) |
August | 10 | 1 (10) | 1 (10) | 0 (0) |
Test temperature and generation are shown. The percentage of initial larvae that survived the first 24 hr after the experiment, successfully pupated, and eclosed as adults is also shown. All percentages are based on the number of larva that began the experiment.
This number differs from Table S2 as a larva escaped during the experiment.
