Abstract: | The effects of γ-radiation on the immature stages ofLiriomyza trifolii Burgess were studied with doses of 2000-25 Gy. The high doses were lethal to all stages. At doses of 750 Gy or less, larvae
survived to pupate, but their number was reduced and the majority were either dead or deformed and did not give rise to adults.
Eggs and prepupae were more susceptible to radiation than other stages. Larval radiosensitivity decreased with progressing
instar, and pupal sensitivity decreased with increasing age.
