Abstract
Ecdysterone administration at physiological concentrations (35 μg /hopper) on alternate days decreased the live weight gain and faecal production in both sexes of 5th instar nymphs of Locusta migratoria. All treated hoppers at this dose failed to moult. No such effects were observed when the hoppers were administered with half of the dose.Keywords
