Spodoptera litura was in 44th passages in September
1987. The cell line consists of single
epithelial-like cells that are polyploid with chromosome numbefs ranging from 56 to 260. The growth rate was determined at 27℃ and 20℃
and doubting time was between 100-144 hr. The cell culture of Spodoptera litura can be heavily infected with both Spodoptera litura NPY and Trichoplusia ni NPV.
