• 論文の詳細を見る

• Adult females of the moth, Heliothis virescens (Noctuidae), were decapitated at embryogence and injected with various doses of juvenile hormone (JH) I, II, or III in 5μI corn oil. All three hormones promoted dose-dependent egg maturation while corn oil only did not. JH I and II appear to be more active than JH III. Egg maturation was inhibited by treatment of females with 50μg precocene II. This inhibitory activity could be reversed by JH therapy. Compactin, an inhibitor of HMG-CoA reductase (an enzyme necessary for the formation of a JH precursor), had no effect on JH-mediated egg maturation in H. virescens.
