survival of genomes. Measurements were taken on the changes in microclimate, in relation to temperature and relative humidity. The impact of larval feeding was recorded; measured by number of larvae per fruit and the number of seeds consumed by each larva. It was noted that the presence or absence of predators doesn't seem to have any affect on the plant survivorship, but increase in vapor pressure results in a greater survivorship. She therefore came to the conclusion that the stability of…
