Seven-days old larvae of Ephestia calidella were gamma irradiated with doses from 25-300 Gy. Irradiation reduced rate of pupation and adult emergence. Also it increased adult's malformation and shortened their life span. The lethal dose for larvae was 300 Gy. Adult fecundity and fertility were adversely affected by the gamma irradiation especially at 100 Gy.
