Abstract
The radiation biology of two geographically isolated populations of the light brown apple moth [Epiphyas postvittana (Walker)] was studied in Australia and New Zealand as an initiation of a SIT/F1 sterility program. Pharate and or = 150 Gy produced few but highly sterile offspring at F1 and mortality was > 99% by F2 egg.
