(Lepidoptera: Bombycidae), although the female formed a bursa copulatrix including a spermatophore and laid fertilized eggs even after mating

A direct enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay has been developed and applied to the analysis of PBAN immunoreactivity in female hemolymph of the cabbage armyworm, Mamestra brassicae. PBAN-IR determinations have been carried out with third scotophase insects at different times of the photoperiod. The rh
## Abstract Pheromone biosynthesis in the redbanded leafroller moth, __Argyrotaenia velutinana__, was stimulated by homogenates of the bursa copulatrix. Although pheromonotropic activity was also extractable from the ovary, the activity of pheromone biosynthesis activating neuropeptide (PBAN) or bu
