Long-Chain Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids Have Developmental Effects on the Crop Pest, the Cabbage White Butterfly Pieris rapae
Fig 2
Incidence of wing deformities in Pieris rapae butterflies fed EPA and DHA enhanced diets in larval stage.
The incidence of wing deformities correlates significantly with the level of EPA and DHA in the diet (correlation coefficient R = 0.988; p = 0.001).
