All of these results show that the pupal male was almost always killed by the already eclosed male immediately after, or even before, eclosion. |
Here they molt again, or pupate as it is called, changing to a non-feeding, quiescent stage called the pupal stage. |
Thus, eye disc cells continue to proliferate until an even larger ecdysone pulse occurs during the middle of the pupal period. |
Prior to pupal emergence, brood combs were placed in an incubator and newly emerged workers were paint-marked on the thorax. |
The type of pupation site selected by larvae also affects pupal survival of D. melanogaster. |
The rounded cuboidal shape of these cells is typically seen in undifferentiated lattice cells early in normal pupal retinal development. |
