Study of the Life Table of Oxya velox (Fabricius, 1787) Induced by Arsenic Compound
Journal Title: Scholars Academic Journal of Biosciences - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 12
Abstract
Arsenic induced life table of Oxya velox was conducted in the present experiment. Study expressed a significant response to various doses of this heavy metal. Increasing mortality in the early instars in 0.0125mg.l-1 dose was an important check to counterbalance the effect of reproduction in mature stage. With the advancement of doses, experimental insects were found to overcome the toxicity of arsenic and able to reduce early mortality significantly.
