Diapause induction in the bollworm was found to be dependent upon both temperature and photoperiod. More bollworms diapaused when reared at 21° than 27°C under identical photoperiodic regimens. The photoperiodic requirement for inducing the pupal diapause, in a substantial percentage of a population under natural conditions, requires that the previous parent and egg stages be exposed to longer photofractions than the subsequent larval progeny. Results suggest that the bell-shape of the diapause induction curve in the autumn is due to the parents and eggs having one set of photoperiodic requirements and the larval stages having another. Diapause may be induced only when the critical photoperiodic requirements of all three life-history stages overlap. Thus, diapause is restricted to a relatively narrow range of photoperiods and at College Station, Texas, occurs only from late September to mid-November. This provides the bollworm with a mechanism for distinguishing between spring and autumn day-lengths.The experiments also indicate that there may be a maternal influence which initiates the individual toward the diapause condition prior to the deposition of eggs; however, this treatment may be reversed by altering the sequence of photoperiodic exposure during the developmental period from egg to pupae.
