ON THE TECHNIQUE OF MODELING ONTOGENETIC CHANGES IN FISH AND INSECTS LIFECYCLE by A. Yu. Perevaryukha

“…The theory of nonlinear efficiency of reproduction leads us to the hypothesis that two different nonlinear effects are controlled by similar mechanisms. For insects such fluctuations in survival during metamorphosis can start another process - the rapid outbreak of pests, where actual formalization of the impact of parasites on the first stage of development, depending on the initial concentration of clutches, but limited resources is taken into account at a finishing. …”
