## Abstract Studies were undertaken to determine the ultrastructure and function of the __spiculum copulatus__ (SC) on the seventh abdominal tergum of adult male __Blattella germanica__ (L.). The SC is located on the seventh abdominal tergum in between the anterior pair of tergal gland orifices. I
A partial cDNA clone of the vitellogenin gene from the cockroach Blattella germanica has been isolated from a cDNA expression library using an anti-vitellin-vitellogenin antiserum probe. The analysis of cDNA inserts gave a sequence of 2,645 nucleotides corresponding to the 3´ region. The deduced ami
