Food induced variation of thermal constants of development and growth of Autographa gamma (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) larvae

The development stages of a species may have an identical lower development threshold (LDT) and proportionally different durations. This phenomenon called "rate isomorphy" (RI) has been demonstrated for a number of insect species. In contrast, the growing day degrees accumulated over the p...
