昆虫的体型小，与高食物消耗、生长和代谢率相关，使其食物利用效率高、生命周期短、生物潜力高、遗传适应和物种形成迅速。已知许多昆虫物种的大多数定性营养需求;许多必需营养素由微生物共生体提供。最近的定量营养学研究使更详细地分析食物的利用、完整动物的生长和代谢动力学以及动物-食物相互作用的控制机制成为可能。
The small size of insects, correlated with high food-consumption, growth, and metabolic rates, makes possible their high efficiency of food-utilization, short life cycles, high biotic potential, and rapid genetic adaptation and speciation. Most of the qualitative nutritional requirements are known for many insect species; many essential nutrients are provided by microbial symbiotes. Recent studies in quantitative nutrition make possible more detailed analysis of the utilization of food, of the kinetics of growth and metabolism in intact animals, and of the controlling mechanisms in the animal-food interaction.
