Development Conditions of Model Organism, Tribolium Castaneum Herbst (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae)
Resumen
It has been widely reported that environmental conditions and the type of diet affect the development of insects. Tribolium castaneum is a beetle widely used in research as a model organism in studies of genetics, development, and toxicology. In this paper, we studied the development cycle of the insect under laboratory conditions (26±2 °C and ground or flakes oatmeal as diet). We found that the egg stage lasts for 6-7 days, the larvae can go through up to eight instars in total, and they can begin pupation from the fourth instar onwards. The pupal stage has a duration of 7±1.7 days. The duration of larval development in the insect is 46-81 days, with an average of 65±19 days. Adults have a size of 3.6±0.0 x 1.1±0.0 mm. In conclusion, Tribolium castaneum is an insect of complete metamorphosis (holometabolous) with a development period of the immature stage ranging from 46-81 days and up to eight instars in our laboratory conditions.
