Endocrine Regulation of Sex Pheromone Production in the Housefly

性信息素的产生在家蝇已被发现与 卵巢发育，进一步的研究表明， 来自卵巢的产物对于刺激 性信息素 布隆奎斯特博士已经证明， 家蝇的卵巢调节信息素的生物合成， 现在想研究生物合成反应的调节， 蜕皮激素更详细。 这些研究将增加我们对生物合成的理解， 昆虫性信息素的内分泌调节，并将提供 设计昆虫特定技术的基本信息 控制

Sex pheromone production in the housefly has been found to be associated with ovarian development, and further studies have demonstrated that a product from the ovary is essential for stimulating the biosynthesis of sex pheromones. Dr. Blomquist has shown that ecdysteroids from the ovary of the housefly regulate the biosynthesis of the pheromone, and he now wants to examine the regulation of the biosynthetic reactions by the ecdysteroids in more detail. These studies will increase our understanding of the biosynthesis and endocrine regulation of insect sex pheromones, and will provide essential basic information for designing specific techniques for insect control.
