Determination of female-biased sexual size dimorphism in moths with a variable instar number: The role of additional instars [PDF]
European Journal of Entomology, 2006 While the ultimate causes and adaptive significance of sexual size dimorphism (SSD) have been extensively studied, the developmental mechanisms behind this phenomenon have received little attention. Going through an additional larval instar may form a specific way of achieving SSD in arthropods. In the present study, the mechanisms of SSD determination

TEMPERATURE CHARACTERISTICS FOR DURATION OF AN INSTAR IN CLADOCERANS [PDF]
Journal of General Physiology, 1926 1. The temperature characteristics for the rate of development during a well defined instar were determined for three species of Cladocera, and found to be of the same general magnitudes as those obtained for rates of development and of O2 consumption in other arthropods. 2.
