متن کاملPrecocious induction of vitellogenin with JH III in the twospotted stink bug, Perillus bioculatus (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae).
The effect of juvenile hormone (JH) III on the hemolymph composition of vitellogenin was examined in Perillus bioculatus. Adult females were treated topically with JH III, and the premature presence of vitellogenin in the hemolymph was then detected using electrophoresis and Western blot analyses. JH III treatment resulted in a dose-dependent early production of vitellogenin that was detectable...
