Abstract: | Rapid acclimation to cold can occur in Dacus tryoni during two short stages of its life history: the stage immediately prior to the “hopping larva” phase and the “pharate adult” stage within the puparium. Transfer from 25 to 15°C at either of these stages can produce full acclimation to cold within a few days. Acclimation is not detectable at other times in puparial life: during adult life it takes over 100 days. |
