Optimal Low Temperature and Chilling Period for Both Summer and Winter Diapause Development in Pieris melete: Based on a Similar Mechanism

The cabbage butterfly, Pieris melete hibernates and aestivates as a diapausing pupa. We present evidence that the optimum of low temperature and optimal chilling periods for both summer and winter diapause development are based on a similar mechanism. Summer or winter diapausing pupae were exposed t...
