Effects of lead and cadmium on chemical composition and total water content of the pupal parasitoid, Pimpla turionellae
1991
Ortel, J.
The parasitoid Pimpla turionellae L. (Hymenoptera, Ichneumonidae) was fed on Cd, Pb and Cd + Pb-contaminated food (33 μg Cd, 82 μg Pb and 33 μg Cd + 82 μg Pb per gram food fresh weight, respectively). Significant decrease in the total lipid and protein content was found along with an increase in the water content particularly in Cd-contaminated parasitoids.
