Juvenile hormone - Open Access .click

Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, 2020
Synthetic compounds that mimic the action of juvenile hormones (JHs) are founding members of a class of insecticides called insect growth regulators (IGRs). Like JHs, these juvenoids block metamorphosis of insect larvae to reproductive adults.
