Subculturing was done on hormone free MS medium after every 2 weeks and the data of each subculture passages was recorded. The percentage of explant producing shoots, number of shoots per explant and shoot length were recorded after 4 and … Continue reading →

, 2009). Unhatched eggs were considered to be in diapause only when embryos were fully developed and without deformity. Egg hatching rate was calculated with embryonated and hatched eggs: Hatch%=(hatched eggs×100)/(embryonated unhatched eggs+hatched eggs) In insects, female size can strongly … Continue reading →
