| Lipid
accumulation window hypothesis: |
|
|
|
| Individuals
can only enter dormancy if their food and |
||
| temperature
history allows them to accumulate sufficient lipid |

|
|
|
| • | Development rate increases faster |
||||||||
| with temperature
than growth rate |
|||||||||
| • | Lipid production integrates temporally |
||||||||
| variable food and
temperature history |
|||||||||
| • | An additional cue acting prior to |
||||||||
| stage CV may be
required |
|||||||||
| • | Mortality also influences probability of |
||||||||
| reaching CV stage |
