  • (19) After the L1 molt, energy metabolism in animals destined to become dauer larvae diverges from that of animals committed to growth.
  • (20) Thus, one may deduce that stopped larvae could have low levels of ecdysone, and perhaps these are the ultimate physiological cause of their arrested development before the critical larva-pupa molt.
