Abstract:
The development of the DD-136 strain of Neoaplectana carpocapsae was studied on three food sources at 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 33, 35, and 37 C. No growth occurred at 10 or above 33 C. At 15, 20. and 25 C, growth and reproduction occurred. The most favorable growth occurred at 25 C. At 30 C, N. carpocapsae developed to adults but did not reproduce. Key Words: temperature-growth effects, DD-136 strain.

Temperature-Dependent Growth of Brook TroutThe growth of brook trout is closely influenced by water temperature. Experimental data demonstrate how trout weight changes over a 24-day period in response to varying water temperatures. At lower temperatures, such as 15.5 degrees Celsius, brook trout show significant weight gain. However, as the temperature increases, the amount of weight gained steadily decreases. At the highest temperature measured, 24.4 degrees Celsius, trout experience a net...
01:27Factors Influencing Microbial Growth: Temperature
Microorganisms display remarkable adaptations, enabling them to thrive in diverse ecological niches across a wide range of temperatures. Temperature profoundly influences microbial growth by affecting enzymatic activity, membrane fluidity, and other cellular processes.Each microorganism operates within a specific temperature range defined by three cardinal points: minimum, optimum, and maximum. Below the minimum temperature, membranes lose fluidity, halting transport processes. Above the...
