Ecdysis triggering hormone signaling (ETH/ETHR-A) is required for the larva-larva Ecdysis in Bactrocera dorsalis (Diptera: Tephritidae) [PDF]
Insects must undergo ecdysis for successful development and growth, and the ecdysis triggering hormone (ETH), released by the Inka cells, is a master hormone in this process. In this study, we determined the sequence of the ETH precursor and receptors in
