Efectos de la calidad del alimento en la tucura Dichroplus pratensist Bruner (Orthoptera: Acrididae)
Resumen
Tanto ninfas de 5to estadio como adultos mostraron una marcada preferencia por el alimento marchito. Las ninfas alimentadas con hojas marchitas crecieron y consumieron más que las alimentadas con hojas turgentes. En los adultos, hubo una mayor tendencia al consumo de alimento marchito, sin embargo, no se hallaron diferencias entre alimentos para la tasa de crecimiento relativo. No hubo tampoco diferencias entre tratamientos en la supervivencia, duración del 5to estadio ninfal, período de preoviposición y fecundidad.
