Abstract
Graphical The parameters examined in Spodoptera littoralis larvae in response to four different diets, high-fat, high-sugar, calcium-rich and plant-based are shown starting with the developmental duration, weight, triglyceride and trehalose levels, lipid droplet structure, and finally with expression of four neuropeptide genes encoding adipokinetic hormone (AKH), insulin-like peptide 1 (ILP1), insulin-like peptide 2 (ILP2) and short neuropeptide F (sNPF).Keywords
