There was a large variation between genotypes in larval survival (77-90%), larval and pupal weight (333-436 and 231-310 mg, resp.), egg viability (55-78.5%), adult longevity (8-10 and 10-12 days for males and females, resp.) and Howe's growth index (0.079-0.099). Larval weight contributed the most to the variation, followed by larval period, pupal weight and pupal period Association for Advancement of Entomology 1990 Article PeerReviewed application/pdf en http://oar.icrisat.org/7698/1/Entomon_15_89-93_1990.pdf Srivastava, C P and Srivastava, R P (1990) Antibiosis in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) to gram pod borer, Heliothis armigera (Hubner) (Noctuidae: Lepidoptera) in India.
