- W1978743622 abstract "A study was made of the relationships among the physiological functions measured in nutritional index experiments using the black cutworm (Agrotis ipsilon). Some of the relationships were expected: e.g. larvae that weighed more at the beginning of the experimental period ate more, gained more weight, and produced larger quantities of faeces. Significantly, no interactions were found between initial larval weight and assimilation, efficiency of conversion of assimilated food, or efficiency of conversion of ingested food. Experiments in which the dietary moisture level was varied showed that a dilution was not compensated for by increased ingestion. Very dry diets resulted in a decrease in fresh weight eaten, as well as in dry weight eaten. As has been reported by other investigators, efficiency of conversion of assimilated food and efficiency of conversion of ingested food were negatively correlated with percent dry matter of the diet. Growth clearly depends both upon the amount of diet (dry weight) ingested and upon efficiency of conversion of ingested food. Accordingly, in our experiments, growth decreased somewhat on the low percent dry matter diets, and decreased a great deal as percent dry matter increased above the control diet level. Optimal growth occurred at a percent dry matter level very close to that of the control diet level, but below that for maximal dry weight eaten, because of the influence exerted by the efficiency of conversion of ingested food. Percent dry matter of faeces increased as percent dry matter of diet increased in a remarkably precise fashion. Percent dry matter of the larvae seemed to be under little regulation, although the larvae were capable of some water conservation. The implications of these findings on the physiological ecology of black cutworm larvae are discussed." @default.
