In normally fed mated O. porcinus females, the hormone titers 'fluctuated
rhythmically around mean background levels throughout the period of oogenesis'
when assayed by the Musca test. Although this mean value was not quantified, ...

In contrast to injection experiments, only small amounts of labelled AP2
accumulate in eggs after ingestion of the hormone. When injected either 7 days
before or at the beginning of oviposition, A. hebraeum females slowly converted
ecdysone ...

We do not know the biosynthetic pathway, its localization, or its probable control
by other hormones such as neurosecretions. In addition, we have no information
on the hormone action at the gene level or on possible interactions with other ...
