Anoxia-Conditioning Hormesis Alters the Relationship Between Irradiation Doses for Survival and Sterility in the Cactus Moth, Cactoblastis cactorum (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae)

2016-06-01

Abstract excerpt

One of the most important components of a program that has a sterile insect technique (SIT) component is an appropriate irradiation dose. Knowing the organismal dose-response enables the selection of a dose that induces the highest level of sterility while preserving the sexual competitiveness and other desired qualities of the sterile insect. Finding this balance in Lepidoptera is crucial because of the use of in...
