Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores techniques for accurately determining the sex of embryos and early-instar larvae of gypsy moths. Early and accurate sex determination of these pests could aid efforts to apply necessary population controls. The author has developed a simple whole-mount microscope technique for use in this process. The method includes preserving larvae in liquid phenol, transferring them to a phenol-rose bengal stain solution, and then placing them on microscope slides for examination under varying magnifications. The author's descriptions and photographs of the process will prove invaluable to those seeking a reliable sexing technique for gypsy moth larvae. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
