PHYSICAL ASPECTS OF ARTIFICIAL DIETS
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, 1969The physical properties of artificial diets, texture, hardness, homogeneity, and water content are regulated by the addition of cellulose, agar, polysaccharide gums, and other large molecules. These physical aspects are important in promoting good growth and development of insects.The development of the boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis Boheman, was ...

Artificial diets for sea hares
Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1979An artificial diet, made up principally of chemicals set in agar, has given good growth in the sea hare Aplysia dactylomela Rang (13 and 29% increases in live weight in two trials of 24- and 16-day periods, respectively, at 28.5 °C). Spawn production accounted for 65 and 29%, respectively, of these increases in weight.

An Artificial Diet for the Laboratory Rearing of Locusts
Nature, 1958LOCUSTS are being increasingly used for research and teaching purposes, but one of the main difficulties involved in maintaining a culture is the provision of an adequate supply of fresh green grass throughout the year1. A further disadvantage of this grass diet was revealed by biochemical investigations into the variation with age of the concentration

Spiders are important constituents of the natural enemy complex of pests in agricultural fields. However, despite its known importance in agriculture, its contribution to pest control is still largely unnoticed. Spiders are good candidates for augmentation by mass rearing and field release since they primarily feed on arthropod pests.

An Artificial Diet for Laboratory Rearing of Honeybees
Journal of Apicultural Research, 1986SummaryAn artificial diet which simulates royal jelly and can be used for the rearing of honeybee larvae (Apis mellifera) is described. The diet is chemically defined except for protein from royal jelly; it also contains 10-hydroxy-2-decenoic acid (10-HDA) from royal jelly. More than 60 perfect adults were reared on the diet.

A practical artificial diet for the diamondback moth
Wuhan University Journal of Natural Sciences, 1996A new artificial diet for the diamondback moth,Plutella Xylostella (L), had been selected out successfully. The diet contained the following constituents: soybean powder, wheat germ, wheat bran powder, brewer's yeast and other constituents. So far, the diamondback moth had been reared on this artificial diet for 25 generations and still mantained its ...
