Figure 1.
Slopes for the associations between insect larval growth rates and temperature stress resistance (left: chill-coma recovery time; right: heat knock-down time).
Data are based on eleven experiments using four different insect species. Given are overall slopes, i.e. across all treatment groups within an experiment (circles), and slopes for subgroups with homogeneous slopes (diamonds). Filled symbols: significant slopes; open symbols: non-significant slopes. Slopes are from left to right arranged in the order of experiments, thus starting with experiment 1. Note that trade-offs between growth rate and stress resistance are indicated by positive slopes for cold resistance, but by negative slopes for resistance.
