The insect was reared individually and communally in glass vials, the latter to develop a mass-rearing technique. Developmental time from neonate to pupa was significantly slower when larvae were individually reared (38.18 ±1.2 days) compared to when they were communally reared (24.6 ± 0.65 days). A microsporidian infection (Nosema sp.) was recorded in the culture, causing significantly (fy6 = 14.99, P = 0.0082) higher mortality of communally reared larvae (76.25 % ± 11.87) than individually reared larvae (24.9 % ± 9.6).]]> Fri 26 Apr 2024 10:03:12 SAST ]]> Assessing the status of biological control as a management tool for suppression of invasive alien plants in South Africa https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:27646 Fri 26 Apr 2024 10:02:38 SAST ]]>
