Metabolic Aspects Of Lipid Nutrition In Insects (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Mittler, T. E.

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Our understanding of the physiological function of insect essential lipids has long been flawed by major uncertainties. It was discovered long ago that dietary sterol is a necessary nutrient for all insects, which radically sets them apart from the vertebrates in terms of qualitative nutrient requirements. Because of the physiological importance of
