Discussion
- For now, this entry focuses only on females
- Investment in the reproduction buffer takes place during the imago stage (synovigeny) because (a) imagos still feed on protein sources, and (b) the wet weight of total reproductive output exceeds the female wet weight at emergence by a lot (making reproductive investment only during the larval phase implausible)
- Since ovary development takes place after emergence in the female imago, we assume a maturity reset at the start of pupation an further maturation during pupa and imago stages till puberty
- The imago feeds, does not grow
- mod_1: Emergence and puberty are triggered by maturity thresholds, pupation is triggered by reserve density at pupation equals that at emergence
- mod_1: allocation to maturation/reproduction subjected to the kappa-rule
- mod_1: the value of the zoom factor is substatially reduced, using guessed asymptotic weight as data
- mod_1: predict-file is simplified
Facts
- Development of ovaries takes place after emergence in the female imago (Ref: ZhenDaan1993)
- Imagos continue feeding on protein sources to sustain egg production (Ref: SattSali2011)
- Has yeast endosymbionts (Ref: Wiki)
