The neuroendocrine mechanisms underlying pheromone regulation in cockroaches are unclear because of a lack of physiological and chemical data. The present report describes experiments designed to determine the role of the brain, corpora allata, and juvenile hormone III in the production of sex phero
I-Citronellyl-5-phenyl imidazole (1,5-CPI), l-citronellyl-4-phenyl imidazole (I,& CPI) and I-citronellyl-2-phenyl imidazole (1,2-CPI) were tested as inhibitors of JH-Ill biosynthesis in vitro. 1,5-CPI was found to be most active followed by 1,2-CPI. The least active isomer was 1,4-CPI. Inhibition of
The effects of voltage-dependent calcium channel (VDCC) antagonists and the non-specific calcium channel antagonists on both juvenile hormone acids (JHA) release and cytosolic free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) are investigated in the corpora allata (CA) of the adult males loreyi leafworm Mythimna
