Regulatory Mechanisms of Vitellogenesis in Insects
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Vitellogenesis is pre-requisite to insect egg production and embryonic development after oviposition. During insect vitellogenesis, the yolk protein precursor vitellogenin (Vg) is mainly synthesized in the fat body, transported by the hemolymph through ...
