The results show that the trend of the changes in the indices caracterising the adaptation tropic abilities of the population grown in a nutrient medium such as potatoes and aubergines, was unidirectional, i. e. the development duration was reduced to one generation, the average weight of a larva of L4 was increased and the death rate was decreased. Tomatoes proved to be the most unpreffered host. Sometime later, however, the colorado potato beetle also adapted to it.
