  • Consequently, whilst A. pisum maintained at 0-4°C had regained temperature-dependent growth by day 49 (figure 7), it would not normally be exposed to warmer conditions until the following spring, approximately 150 days later.

  • Once winter has commenced, diapause ends and the insect enters post-diapause quiescence, relying on persistent low temperatures to maintain developmental arrest [ 27 ] . This appears to be the case in A. pisum . The aphid clone used for the experiment would normally oviposit in mid-October, when the average daily temperature is 9°C with a maximum of 15°C [ 32 ] . By day 28 the embryos would be exposed to average daily temperatures of 3°C.

  • Diapause typically involves as a period of developmental arrest during which an insect is resistant to environmental influences on developmental progression [ 2 ] . Sexually-produced A. pisum embryos do not demonstrate developmental arrest.

  • The finding that A. pisum embryos maintained at 16°C showed considerable malformation may be a consequence of surpassing the normal thermal limits of developmental regulation.
