We treated the adult moths and observed the egg hatching which was significantly reduced compared with control but the mating behavior was not changed.
If we want to study the mechanism from aspect to endocrine signaling pathways, which hormones or enzymes need to study? If we need to study the Juvenile hormone JH, then which parameters need to study to find the mechanism?
Thanks
Hi Sakhawat Shah,
Many Hormones effect on Insect oviposition. For example, Base step in oviposition of Mosquitoes of nematocera blood feeding of host vertebrata. Then in Aedes agypti blood feedingcause leave of ovary ecdysteroidogeic hormone(OEH) and insuline-like peptide 3 (ILP3) than cause growth of eggs.
In other research, effect Molting Hormone (MH) with delete ofventral gland in start of nymph last instar of Asian grasshopper cause delay of growth ovary.
In other research, PTTH hormone effect on growth ovary directly. However, in Schistocerca gregaria delete of NSC cause positive effects in growth of oocyte and mating.
