Molecular characterization and function analysis of the vitellogenin receptor from the cotton bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae) [PDF]
Developing oocytes accumulate plentiful yolk protein during oogenesis through receptor-mediated endocytosis. The vitellogenin receptor (VgR), belonging to the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) family, regulates the absorption of yolk protein.

Effects of myoinhibitory peptides on food intake in the German cockroach [PDF]
Insect myoinhibitory peptides were discovered through their inhibitory activity on visceral muscle contraction. The present study tests the antimyotropic gut properties of three galanin-related myoinhibitory peptides (Mas-MIP II: GWQDLNSAW-NH2; Grb-AST ...

ALTERNATE-2 DISJUNCTION IN THE GERMAN COCKROACH [PDF]
ABSTRACT The evidence in support of two types of alternate disjunction in translocation heterozygotes from the German cockroach, Blattella germanica(L.), is reviewed. When unique cytomorphological features occur in the translocation figure, the two types of alternate disjunction are identifiable regardless of the angle of observation ...
