How can you use “pupae” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Several insects that diapause over winter are resistant to environmental conditions conducive to growth only at the beginning of winter [ 27 28 29 30 31 ] . This prevents premature emergence, be it from egg, larvae or pupae, just at the onset of the cold temperatures the insect is trying to avoid.
It is difficult to test this notion with the current literature as timed dissections of diapausing embryos, larvae and pupae have rarely been conducted.
We next attempted to determine the critical time for in function in lateral development using temperature shift experiments with the temperature sensitive allele in II53 [ 20 ] . On the wing this allele results in a large phenotypic difference when pupae grown at the restrictive versus permissive temperatures.
In the wing the accumulation of Fz at the distal edge of the cell requires the function of dsh [ 10 ] . We examined aristae from dsh 1; arm-fz-GFP pupae and found that the preferential distal accumulation of Fz was lost (Fig.
At that point, the microcosms were searched for remaining larvae and pupae, which were counted for determination of total survival to that day.
