In the moth, Manduca sexta, 3,5guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) is transiently elevated during adult development in about 100 neurons of the antennal lobe. We demonstrate that nearly all of these neurons are local interneurons of the lateral cluster I, that their capacity to show a strong cGMP respons

## Abstract During metamorphosis of the moth __Manduca sexta__, the neuromuscular system of the thoracic legs is reorganized dramatically. Larval leg muscles degenerate at the end of larval life, and new adult leg muscles develop during the ensuing pupal stage. Larval leg motoneurons persist, but u
During metamorphosis of Manduca sexta, defined sets of neurons show a dramatic accumulation of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). Although many of these cells show low but detectable levels of cGMP during specific developmental windows, these levels are enhanced dramatically during dissection of
## Abstract In the olfactory (antennal) lobe of the moth __Manduca sexta__, olfactory receptor axons strongly influence the distribution and morphology of glial cells. In the present study, we asked whether the development of the electrophysiological properties of the glial cells is influenced by t
Each hemisegment of the Manduca sexta larva is supplied with a subepidermal plexus of approximately 350 multidendritic neurons. An initial set of neurons, the primary plexus neurons, arise at 35-45% of embryogenesis. These neurons comprise 12-16 uniquely identifiable neurons per hemisegment that hav
