Abstract

In this paper we review available literature and experimental data (2003–2009) on the influence of climate change on photoperiodic reac­ti­ons of Azerbaijan population of the Hyphantria cunea Drury. It has been revealed, that under new conditions, on one hand, the favorable seasonal period for development is getting longer and, on another hand, rates of growth of some developmental stages increase. All this affects voltinism and promotes transition from bivoltinism to trivoltinism as well as production of additional incomplete generations in transition zones (Baku-Apsheron).
