Insect juvenile hormone: from "status quo" to high society
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2000 Juvenile hormone (JH) exerts pleiotropic functions during insect life cycles. The regulation of JH biosynthesis by neuropeptides and biogenic amines, as well as the transport of JH by specific binding proteins is now well understood.

European Journal of Entomology, 2010 In the present study the hypothesis that there is a feedback between juvenile hormone and adipokinetic hormones (AKHs) was investigated by topical application of the juvenoid methoprene on 9-day-old adult males of the firebug Pyrrhocoris apterus.

Juvenile hormone-receptor complex acts on mcm4 and mcm7 to promote polyploidy and vitellogenesis in the migratory locust. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2014 Juvenile hormone (JH), a sesquiterpenoid produced by the corpora allata, coordinates insect growth, metamorphosis, and reproduction. While JH action for the repression of larval metamorphosis has been well studied, the molecular basis of JH in promoting ...

Starvation increases insulin sensitivity and reduces juvenile hormone synthesis in mosquitoes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The interactions between the insulin signaling pathway (ISP) and juvenile hormone (JH) controlling reproductive trade-offs are well documented in insects.

On the corpora allata of dipterous insects [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B - Biological Sciences, 1937 It is well known from Nabert’s extensive work (1913) on the corpora allata of the Insecta that these small organs are of general occurrence in that class of animals. In so far as the Diptera are concerned, this investigator gave little attention to that order, and only described the corpora allata in the adults of two species of

LsFAMeT and LsJHAMT coordinate JH biosynthesis to regulate fecundity in Laodelphax striatellus
Insect Science, EarlyView.The small brown planthopper (SBPH), Laodelphax striatellus, can trigger large‐scale outbreaks when encountering suitable habitats during migration due to their strong reproductive ability. This study investigated the role of juvenile hormone (JH) in regulating SBPH reproduction.

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 6, March 2026.ABSTRACT The Western honey bee (Apis mellifera) is a globally important pollinator. Its health in natural and managed populations is compromised by numerous factors, including pesticides. Neonicotinoid pesticides are widely used even though they can cause a variety of detrimental effects.

On the corpora allata of dipterous insects. II [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B - Biological Sciences, 1938 In an earlier paper (Burtt 1937) it was suggested, on morphological and histological evidence, that Weismann’s ring in the larva of Calliphora represents the modified corpora allata. Fraenkel (1935) had previously found that pupation in Calliphora is induced by a hormone which is secreted in ...
