| In order to understand the resistance of adults in Leptocybe invasa to extreme temperatures, exposureexperiment and cold acclimation experiment were used to test the resistance ability of adults from different seasons toextreme temperatures. The results showed that, L. invasa adults had both certain basal tolerance and inducedtolerance to extreme temperatures, and compared with autumn, summer bodies had higher heat resistance but lowercold resistance, autumn bodies were contrary. Besides, cold acclimation experiment proved that long-term exposureunder non-lethal low temperature may cause chilling injure to insects. |
