Discussion

  • 5 (normal) till 8 (at caloric restriction) instars from birth till pupation
  • Part of energy in imago structure is assumed to conert to eggs
  • mod_1: references corrected/added, data added and changed, data re-digitized, no conversion from structure to eggs
  • mod_2: parameter estimation redone

Facts

  • Imagos only feed on nectar (Ref: Wiki)
