Overview

Experiment reveals diet impacts larval growth in spodoptera frugiperda, suggesting optimized artificial diets for better biological control.

Key Points

  • The chickpea-based diet led to the heaviest pupae, averaging 168.36 mg.
  • Significant differences were recorded across all morphometric parameters among the different diets.
  • Controlled experiments indicated that diet selection critically affects larval development and body size.
  • Findings underscore the chickpea diet's potential in integrated pest management strategies.
