Abstract	A cell line, ZSU-SL-1, initiated in September, 1986, from embryos of cotton leafworm, Spodoptera litura was in 44th passages in September, 1987. The cell line consists of single, epithelial-like cells that are polyploid with chromosome numbers ranging from 56 to 260. The growth rate was determined at 27 Celsius and 20 Celsius, and doubling 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.
Cell lines	CVCL_Z321; SL-ZSU-1
