[Thermoperiodic information and the induction of diapause in Pieris brassicae L].
When exposed their whole larval life to a 24 h. thermoperiodic cycle in constant darkness, individuals of Pieris brassicae L. give diapausing or non-diapausing pupae according to the length of the cold and warm sequences. The curve of thermoperiodic induction is similar to the photoperiodic curve.
