Fig. 1 Variations in fresh body mass of caterpillar (A), cocooning rate (B), cocoon volume (C) and egg production per female month (D) among different treatments during the experiment, which are denoted by solid line with hollow circles (Non-warmed) and solid line with solid squares (Warmed), respectively.
Fig. 2 The number of feeding caterpillars in the treatments, which are denoted by dotted line with hollow circles or (Non-warmed) and solid line with solid squares (Warmed), respectively. *, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01; ***, P < 0.001.
Fig.3 Relationships between temperature and caterpillar appetite (A), excrement mass (B), respiration rate (C) or change of caterpillar weight (D) in the chamber experiment. Sample size (N ), regression coefficients (R2) and statistical test (P values) are provided for the relationships that are statistically significant.
Fig. 4 Results of stepwise general linear regression models showing standardization regression coefficients between change of caterpillar weight and caterpillar appetite, excrement mass or respiration rate, respectively. *, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01; ***, P < 0.001.
