Mating results in a strong suppression of sex pheromone (bombykol) production in the female silkworm moth, Bombyx mori. The mechanical stimulation from the insertion of a penis, inflation of the bursa copulatrix (BC), or copulation with the sterile male whose penis was removed in order to prevent ej

Application of methoprene to fourth (penultimate) instar larvae of the silkworm Bombyx mori induced the appearance of the feeding dauer larvae at the fifth (last) instar and prevented pupal metamorphosis. Methoprene also increased the protein concentrations of hemolymph last instar larvae by prevent
## Abstract Measurements of Ca^2+^ influx in Furaβ2/AM loaded steroidogenic cells (prothoracic glands; PGs) of the silkworm, __Bombyx mori__ showed that application of the neuropeptide prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH) can increase the intracellular [Ca^2+^]~i~. This PTTHβmediated Ca^2+^ influx in
Effects of fenoxycarb at ultralow doses were investigated on juvenile hormone (JH)-regulated parameters in the silkworm, B. mori. Like JH, this non-terpenoid carbamate is able to induce permanent larvae in the last larval instar. However, whereas micrograms of JH are needed to produce this effect, o
