Summary

LD50 values as well as time-dependent parameters of granulosis virus infections were determined at different times during the last larval instar (L5) of the codling moth,Cydia pomonella L., induced either for pupation or for diapause. A significant increase of tolerance to virus was found in 48-h-old L5 induced for pupation, and 24 h later in L5 induced for diapause.
