| Zusammenfassung: | In order to establish an indoor-rearing system for the emma field cricket, Teleogryllus emma, the effects of
seven photoperiod regimes (0L:24D, 8L:16D, 10L:14D, 12L:12D, 13L:11D, 14L:10D and 16L:8D) on
development and reproduction of T. emma have been analyzed. The nymphs developed faster in the short
than in the long photoperiods. Adult body weight was dependent on the nymphal period. The preoviposition
period, oviposition period and the number of eggs laid in different photoperiods were not significantly
affected by photoperiod. KCI Citation Count: 0 |
