Abstract
SUMMARY: The effect of various desiccation regimes on the ability of second stage larvae of Anguina tritici (Steinbuch, 1799) to survive drying at 0% relative humidity has been studied. It was found that both repeated dehydrationhehydration cycles and the length of the desiccation period itself decreased viability of the larvae. The results are discussed in relation to the mechanisms which may facilitate anhydrobiosis.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
