Influence of pre-diapause temperature on intensity of summer and winter diapause in the cabbage butterfly Pieris melete (Lepidoptera: Pieridae)
Effect of pre-diapause temperature on summer and winter diapause intensity was examined under both laboratory and field conditions. Under short photoperiods of 8L : 16D and 10L : 14D, all pupae entered diapause at 15, 18 and 20°C and the incidence of diapause dropped to 82.3% and 85.5% at 22°C, resp...
