Schooley 9602148 Control of water balance and hemolymph volume are critical components of insect homeostasis. This control is believed to be largely due to the actions of diuretic and antidiuretic homones on fluid and ion levels in peripheral structures of the insect. However, the nature of these hormones is unresolved. Dr. Schooley is isolating and characterizing the hormones responsible for fluid conservation in insects and is defining their mechanisms and sites of action. Successful accomplishment of this project will further our knowledge of insect fluid conservation mechanisms, whose disruption represents a unique and effective method to control insect pests. The agricultural impact of these experiments is immense.

Schooley 9602148 水平衡和血淋巴体积的控制是昆虫体内平衡的关键组成部分。 这种控制被认为主要是由于利尿和抗利尿激素对昆虫外周结构中的液体和离子水平的作用。 然而，这些激素的性质尚未得到解决。 Schooley博士正在分离和描述负责昆虫体液保护的激素，并确定它们的作用机制和作用部位。 该项目的成功完成将进一步加深我们对昆虫流体保存机制的认识，其破坏代表了控制害虫的独特而有效的方法。 这些实验对农业的影响是巨大的。
