| Abstract | ||
| The element contents of Trogoderma granarium Everts diapaused and nondiapaused larvae reared on three iarval hosts and kept at two degrees of temperatures. Analyses of 10 elements Na,Mg,Si,P ,S,CI,K,Ca,Cu and Zn were analyzed by energy dispersive X-ray analyzer (EOX). It was observed that the most abundant light element in (NOLW) and (NOLC) was K. The most abundant light element in NOLP was P. Sodium was disappeared from NOLWand NOLC, while it was appeared in significant values in OLW kept at 25°C and OLW kept at 35°C. Mg disappeared only from NOlW. Heavy metals (Cu and Zn) show relative abundance OLW kept at 25 and 35cC less than their control (NOlW). The same trend was observed in OlC and OlP except those reared on peanut and kept at 25°C. Abbreviations: NOLW: nondiapaused larvae reared on wheat NOLC: nondiapaused larvae reared on cowpea NOLP: nondiapaused larvae reared on peanut OlW : diapaused larvae reared on wheat OLC : diapaused larvae reared on cowpea OlP : diapaused larvae reared on Peanut | ||
