Abstract
Circadian rhythms of the male cockroach B. germanica L. were observed in thermograms recorded from a microcalorimeter. The endogenous rhythms developed in unentrained individuals after 2 or more 24 h periods without light at 20.degree. C in the microcalorimeter. The rhythm can also be entrained with standard conditions LD [light:dark] 12:12 for 3 days.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
