Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Generally less than 10% of eggs were found on the current season growth of blackcurrant.
- Observation The proportion of the larval population in younger wood increased until just before pupation.
- Observation Just before pupation over 80% of the larval population was in the most recent 2 years of growth.
- Observation The 1-year-old wood harboured 50% of the early larval population.
- Observation The dispersion of eggs and larvae was shown by several indices to be aggregated.
- Observation A common k of 0.66 (95% confidence limits 0.57-0.80) for the egg stage was valid.
- Observation The common k for the larval stage, 1.28 (1.09-1.56), was only marginally valid.
