OSTI ID:4111017
Progress is reported in studies of the quantitative aspects of temporary and permanent sterility induced in the wasp Habrobracon by external irradiation and by ingested inorganic compounds. Results indicate that induced dominant lethals form the basis of reduced fecundity and fertility. In combination with radiation, slight effects on fecundity were observed when strontium was fed. Significant increases in radiation damage was seen when cations that in themselves influence gamete production and survival were fed. Data are tabulated on the effect of a single feeding of nickel sulfate on the fecundity pattern. The effects of enzyme activating metals and thiol reagents on fecundity were also studied. Inorganic compounds used in ingestion experiments are tabulated. (C. H.)
