Physiology of cold-acclimation in non-diapausing adults of Pyrrhocoris apterus (Heteroptera)
Chill tolerance (time of survival at -5°C) increased in non-diapausing (reproducing) adults of Pyrrhocoris apterus after a gradual, 4-week-long decrease in ambient temperature from 25° to 0°C. The level of chill tolerance attained after cold-acclimation was considerably lower than that in similarly...
