Thermoperiodism, photoperiodism and sensitive stage in the diapause induction of Sesamia nonagrioides (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

Photoperiod is the major factor governing the induction of larval diapause in Sesamia nonagrioides. Constant temperature and thermoperiod were shown to be additional factors which interact with photoperiod to induce diapause. Constant temperature modified the diapause response curve to daylength fro...
