Abstract
AbstractA chemically defined, synthetic medium that induces oviposition in the parasiteItoplectis conquisitor(Say) has been developed. The medium contains serine (0.5M), arginine (0.05M), leucine (0.065M), and magnesium chloride (0.025M); and it is more effective than host haemolymph in inducing oviposition. This completely artificial oviposition stimulant was developed to facilitate the mass rearing of the parasite on an artificial diet.
