飼育外米綴蛾的合適飼料量

Abstract

在本試驗中以相同體積的米糠與碎玉米均勻混合作為外米綴蛾的飼料。以二公升飼料，並灑上0.3g 外米綴蛾卵，平均每公升飼料可以飼養出1786至2169 隻外米綴蛾，是合適的飼育組合。開始飼育外米綴蛾以後，飼料內溫度會逐漸升高，在成蛾開始羽化前的一段時間，溫度達到最高。而後飼料溫度漸行降低，趨近於室溫。 A mixture of equal volume of rice bran and ground corn was used as a larval diet for rearing rice moth, Corcyra cephalonica Stainton. The best result was obtained by sprinkling 0.3g moth egg on two-liter diet, which produced 3571 to 4337 adult moths. Diet temperature rose as Corcyra larvae developed and reached the highest just before adult moths beginning to emerge. After that, the diet temperature decreased gradually to room temperature.
