This receptor was strongly stimulated by "bitter" substances such as strychnine nitrate, salicin, brucine, nicotine, etc. as well as by the aqueous extracts which were obtained from many normally unacceptable plant leaves for the larvae. Such bitter substances for human sense as phenylthiourea, beta

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
When an imidazole derivative (KK-42) was applied to day 1 third instar larvae of the silkworm, Bombyx mori, 100% underwent precocious metamorphosis at the end of the fourth instar. Thus, the fourth instar becomes the last instar in these KK-42-treated larvae. The endocrine systems underlying the pre
## 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
