Nevertheless, the logistic growth curve is a useful starting point in the study of population ecology, so that the following simple relation between, the rate of increase, generation time and the ...

(1) A logistic model is presented which simulates population growth and concomitant environmental changes when the rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae, is reared on wheat. Parameters quantifying the ...

The growth kinetics were found to be dependent on the level of irradiance, but no significant differences in the root: total dry weight ratio were observed. To characterize the effect of illuminance, ...
