The development of caterpillars of gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar L.) feeding on food affected by nitrogen
Original language description
In laboratory rearing, affects were monitored of the differentiated content of nitrogen (17.17--38.89 mg.g-1) in birch (Betula pendula Roth) leaves on the development, mortality and consumption of food of caterpillars of Lymantria dispar L. The low content of nitrogen in food was the cause of the higher mortality of caterpillars, smaller weight of pupae and the prolongation of development. Caterpillars of future males fed on food with the insufficient content of nitrogen needed the higher amount of foodto complete their development. This experiment was supported by a hypothesis that spring phytophages preferred tissues with the higher content of nitrogen. Caterpillars can respond to the above-standard content of nitrogen similarly as to the lack of nitrogen.
