In Polygonia c-aureum , there are two seasonal forms, viz. , the summer form and the autumn form. Previous experiments (E ndo , 1970) showed that the corpora allata of the summer form accelerate the maturation of ovarian follicles soon after imaginal ecdysis. On the other hand, the corpora allata of the autumn form do not stimulate ovarian maturation during a period of 2 to 3 weeks after the emergence.
In the summer form (S) as well as in the autumn form (A), the corpora allata remained in an inactive state for about 15 days after emergence when they had been isolated microsurgically from the brain and the corpora cardiaca during the larval period. Further, when separation of the brain into the right and left hemispheres or ablation of the medial neurosecretory group cells of the pars intercerebralis had been carried out on S-pupae of 28 hr after pupation or of earlier ages, they developed into autumn form in respect to wing pattern and their corpora allata did not stimulate ovarian maturation until 2 to 3 weeks after emergence. On the other hand, when the above operations had been performed 34 hr after the pupation or of later ages, they developed into summer form in respect to wing pattern and ovarian maturation was evident soon after the emergence. In these cases, stimulation of the corpora allata is closely connected with the development of seasonal-forms of wing pattern.
From these experiments, it is clear that the medial neurosecretory group cells of the pars intercerebralis in S-insects stimulate the corpora allata about 30 hr after pupation by way of the nervi corporis cardiaci and the activated corpora allata promote ovarian maturation throughout adult life. In A-insects, on the other hand, the medial neurosecretory group cells of the brain are inactive and fail to activate the corpora allata which in turn have no influence on ovarian maturation. 相似文献

RELATION BETWEEN OVARIAN MATURATION AND ACTIVITY OF THE CORPORA ALLATA IN SEASONAL FORMS OF THE BUTTERFLY, POLYGONIA C-AUREUM L. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
KATSUHIKO ENDO 《Development, growth & differentiation》1970,11(4):297-304
In summer form adults of Polygonia c-aureum, the ovary develops soon after emergence and eggs mature a few days later. However, in autumn form adults, having been kept in laboratory conditions, only several mature eggs are found about four weeks after emergence. The allatectomy during the larval period prevents egg maturation in adults of both forms. When the corpora allata from the summer form of both sexes are transplanted into allatectomized adults of the autumn or summer form, the ovary develops as in the case of summer form adults. But the corpora allata of both sexes of the autumn form are not effective in inducing the ovarian maturation. Environmental factors, especially day-length and temperature during the larval period, may act through the neuroendocrine system to induce the activity of the corpora allata in the adult life. 相似文献

The general morphology of the complex of endocrine glands in Chironomus thummi is described (corpora allata, peritracheal glands, cardial bodies). Each of these glands is characterized during the 3rd, 4th larval instars and metamorphosis by specific developmental features. Enlargement of corpora allata is due, mainly, to more than 10-fold increase in cell number. The process of growth in the peritracheal gland is realized mainly at the expense of increase in cell size and formation of polytene nuclei; the latter is witnessed both by nuclear morphology and increase of DNA content per nucleus. It was shown by cytophotometric measurements that DNA content per nucleus in the peritracheal gland of a just moulted larva of the 4th instar amounts to 0.202 +/- 0.02 relative units, in prepupa to 2.98+/-0.01, whereas the corresponding values for nuclei of corpora allata equal 0.107+/-0.01 and 0.212+/-0.1. The number of cells and the morphology of nuclei suffer no significant changes in cardial bodies but 2 giant cells intimately connected with cardial bodies increase in volume from 18 to 200,000 mu3 and typical polytene chromosomes form in them. 相似文献

Males of the red locust, Nomadacris septemfasciata, allatectomized 3–11 days after the moult to the adult stage did not exhibit any sexual behaviour and remained in a state comparable to adult diapause, while all the sham-allatectomized controls exhibited distinct sexual behaviour. Implantations of four pairs of active corpora allata (originating from sexually mature males of Locusta migratoria migratorioides) into the allatectomized males of the red locust led to sexual behaviour; in contrast, all those allatectomized males in which shamimplantations (appropriate surgical treatment without actual implantation of corpora allata) were performed remained in adult diapause showing no sexual behaviour.Comparison of the results with other data revealed that in some species of Acridids the corpora allata completely control (in a direct or indirect manner) male sexual behaviour, while in other species of the same family this control is either incomplete or perhaps does not exist at all. The presence or absence of a complete endocrine control of male sexual behaviour may perhaps be correlated with the fact that the species involved has or has not the ability to undergo a state of adult diapause.
Zusammenfassung Männchen der Roten Heuschrecke, Nomadacris septemfasciata, die 3–11 Tage nach der Häutung zur Imago allatektomiert worden waren, zeigten keinerlei sexuelle Aktivität und verharrten in einem der Adult-Diapause vergleichbaren Zustand, während alle scheinallatektomierten Kontrolltiere ausgeprägtes Sexualverhalten aufwiesen. Implantationen von 4 Paar Corpora allata (aus geschlechtsreifen Männchen von Locusta migratoria migratorioides stammend) in allatektomierte Männchen der Roten Heuschrecke führten zu Sexualverhalten; im Gegensatz dazu verharrten alle diejenigen allatektomierten Männchen, bei welchen Schein-Implantationen durchgeführt wurden (entsprechende operative Behandlung ohne Implantation von Corpora allata) in Adult-Diapause und zeigten keine sexuelle Aktivität.Vergleich der Ergebnisse mit anderen Daten lassen erkennen, daß bei einigen Acridier-Arten die Corpora allata das männliche Sexualverhalten (auf direkte oder indirekte Weise) beeinflussen, während dieser Einfluß bei anderen Arten der gleichen Familie entweder unvollständig ist oder überhaupt nicht auftritt. Vorkommen oder Fehlen einer vollständigen endokrinen Kontrolle des männlichen Sexualverhaltens mag vielleicht von dem Umstand abhängen, ob die betreffende Art die Fähigkeit hat, ein Stadium adulter Diapause zu durchlaufen oder nicht.相似文献

Alpha-ecdysone advances the metamorphosis of female sexual larvae in the last instar and reduces the size of adults that emerge. These adults are either small queens or intercastes or workers, instead of large queens. Treatment, after adult buds have begun to differentiate, gives a greater effect than earlier treatment, though such early treatment probably reduces resistance to ecdysone later on. The juvenile hormone analogues, farnesenic acid and farnesenyl-methyl-ether, applied topically and injected in olive oil, delay metamorphosis and permit female sexual larvae to grow bigger and generate more as well as larger queens. Post-cephalic ligature which excludes both the cerebral ganglia and the corpora allata enables the leg buds to grow and segment. As elimination of the cerebral ganglia by extrusion through the cuticle does not release leg segmentation it is presumed that the corpora allata are secreting a development inhibitor. In confirmation, juvenile hormone analogues applied topically to ligatured larvae inhibit leg development. Morphometric evidence suggests that an apolysis has been suppressed at the end of larval life; this has left the endocrine mechanism free to evolve into a system for the generation of two distinct morphs. 相似文献

SHIGEO TAKEUCHI 《Development, growth & differentiation》1969,11(1):8-28
When embryonic testes 1 or 2 days before hatching were transplanted into 5 kinds of hosts (5th instar larvae, “fresh” pupae just after pupation, isolated pupal abdomens and 3-day-old pupae with and without their original corpora allata), the testes transplanted into 5th instar larvae grew most conspicuously and spermiogenesis began in many cysts. A few spermatidal cysts were observed in the testes transplanted into fresh pupae. No signs of maturation were observed in the testes transplanted into other hosts. It is concluded that prothoracic gland hormone might be responsible for the precocious maturation of young testes. On the other hand, the initiation of spermiogenesis was delayed, in comparing with controls, in the 3rd instar larval testes as follows: the testes transplanted into 3-day-old pupae, the testes transplanted into isolated pupal abdomens together with adult corpora allata and the testis into which corpus allatum of a 3rd instar larva was inserted. It is concluded that corpora allata hormone exerts an inhibitory effect on spermatogenesis. 相似文献

In the hibernating (diapausing) Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say, the flight muscles show pronounced degeneration. The muscle fibrils are greatly reduced in diameter and the sarcosomes are virtually absent. Similar signs of degeneration could be produced by extirpation of the postcerebral complex of endocrine glands, the corpora cardiaca and corpora allata. Reimplantation of active postcerebral complexes resulted in a very rapid regeneration of the muscle fibrils and new formation of sarcosomes. 相似文献

Photoperiodic effect on size-related metamorphosis in the milkweed leaf beetle, Labidomera clivicollis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
JAMES O. PALMER 《Physiological Entomology》1982,7(1):37-41
ABSTRACT. Photoperiod significantly affected size-related aspects of metamorphosis in the milkweed leaf beetle Labidomera clivicollis (Kirby) (Chrysomelidae). Larvae reared under short-day photoperiod successfully pupated at lower weights than larvae reared under long-day photoperiods. This short-day effect was observed to an equivalent extent in both males and females; but within photoperiod treatments, males consistently pupated at lower weights than females. It is likely that the short-day effect on metamorphosis is associated with photo-periodically induced changes in larval corpora allata activity or juvenile hormone titre. Ecologically, the short-day effect on metamorphosis may enhance the moulting success of larvae which encounter food shortages during autumn. 相似文献

Juvenile hormone synthesis by adult female corpora allata was inhibited following implantation into final-larval-instar males; inhibition was prevented by decapitation of the larval hosts on day 11 (prior to the head critical period for moulting), but not by decapitation on day 13. Implantation of one larval protocerebrum restored inhibition of implanted corpora allata, demonstrating that the brain releases an inhibitory factor. Corpora allata implanted into larvae decapitated on day 11 were inhibited by injections of 20-hydroxyecdysone. Since treatment of corpora allata with 20-hydroxyecdysone in vitro did not inhibit juvenile hormone synthesis, ecdysteroids probably act indirectly on the corpora allata. Juvenile hormone synthesis and haemolymph ecdysteroid concentration were measured following implantation of corpora allata along with two larval brains into larval hosts. Brain implantation did not affect ecdysteroid concentration, but did inhibit juvenile hormone synthesis, even in animals with low haemolymph ecdysteroid concentration. Incubation with farnesoic acid stimulated juvenile hormone synthesis by corpora allata from males early in the final larval stadium, but not after day 8, showing that one of the final two reactions of juvenile hormone synthesis is rate-limiting in larval corpora allata at this stage. Adult female corpora allata which had been humorally inhibited by implantation into larvae were stimulated by farnesoic acid. 相似文献

Juvenile hormone synthesis by corpora allata is regulated partly by allatostatin containing nerves from the brain that innervate the corpora cardiaca and the corpora allata. To investigate whether NO also participates in the regulation of juvenile hormone synthesis, antibody against NO synthase and the histochemical test for NADPH diaphorase activity, a marker for NO synthase, were applied to the corpora cardiaca-corpora allata of Diploptera punctata. Strong NADPH diaphorase activity occurred in corpus allatum cells but not in nerve fibers in the corpora allata or corpora cardiaca. In contrast, NO immunoreactivity occurred in nerves in the corpora cardiaca but not within the corpora allata. NO and allatostatin were not colocalized. NO synthase and NADPH diaphorase activity were localized in similar areas of the subesophageal ganglion and cells in the pars intercerebralis of the brain. Positive correlation of the quantity of NADPH diaphorase activity with juvenile hormone synthesis during the gonadotrophic cycle and lack of such correlation in subesophageal ganglia suggest that NADPH diaphorase activity reflects the necessity of NADPH in the pathway of juvenile hormone synthesis. These data suggest that NO is unlikely to play a significant role in the regulation of the corpora allata. 相似文献

家蚕蜕皮与变态的内分泌调控 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2
家蚕的蜕皮与变态是由前胸腺分泌的脱皮素(molting hormone或 ecdysteroid简称 MH)及由咽侧体分泌的保幼激素(juvenile hormone)控制的,而促有前胸腺激素(prothoracicotropic hormone,以下简称PTTH)的功能为刺激前胸腺分泌蜕皮素。笔者近10年来从家蚕内分泌体系的一系列研究中发现,蜕皮素浓度的变化可以通过控制咽侧体的保幼激素的生物合成来影响幼虫发育,而PTTH的信息传递可通过调控前胸腺的功能,进而影响血淋巴中蜕皮素浓度。 相似文献

Normal rates of juvenile hormone synthesis, cell number and volume of corpora allata were measured in penultimate and final-instar male larvae of Diploptera punctata. The rate of juvenile hormone synthesis per corpus allatum cell was highest on the 4th day of the penultimate stadium, declined slowly for the remainder of that stadium, and rapidly after the first day of the final stadium.Regulation of the corpora allata in final-instar males was studied by experimental manipulation of the corpora allata followed by in vitro radiochemical assay of juvenile hormone synthesis. Nervous inhibition of the corpora allata during the final stadium is suggested by the observation that rates of juvenile hormone synthesis increased following denervation of the corpora allata at the start of the stadium; this operation induced a supernumerary larval instar. Juvenile hormone synthesis by corpora allata denervated at progressively later ages in the final stadium and assayed after 4 days decreased with age at operation. This suggests an increasingly unfavourable humoral environment in the final stadium, which was confirmed by the low rate of juvenile hormone synthesis of adult female corpora allata implanted into final-instar larvae. Thus, inhibitory factors or lack of stimulatory factors in the haemolymph may act with neural inhibition to suppress juvenile hormone synthesis in final-instar males. 相似文献

Adult females of the cockroach Blattella germanica have clearly-defined feeding cycles related to oogenesis. In the first cycle, food ingestion precedes volumetric increase in the corpora allata, which in turn precedes juvenile hormone production, whereas starved females do not develop the corpora allata and produce very low amounts of juvenile hormone. When the second gonadotropic cycle is provoked by removing the ootheca, the first event observed is an increase in food consumption, followed by an increase in corpora allata volume and activity. However, this increase in corpora allata volume (and activity) does not occur if females are starved, thus indicating that the ootheca in the genital chamber inhibits primarily feeding, and indirectly corpora allata development and activity. Corpora allata volume in isolated heads from starved and decapitated females was able to increase to levels similar to fed controls, but this increase was abolished by allatostatin treatment. We suggest that a factor produced in the thoracico-abdominal compartment, which reaches the head mainly through a nervous pathway, is released during starvation and inhibits corpora allata development. This factor may stimulate allatostatin production or release, or may well be allatostatin itself. 相似文献

After metamorphosis the development of males of Pterostichus nigrita is controlled by photoperiods. Development is free of any dormancy in short day conditions (photoperiods with less than 16·9 to 15·1 hr of light per day). This type of dormancy can be called ‘photoperiodic quiescence’. Short days promote the aggregation of spermatozoa to spermiozeugma. Long day conditions suppress the development of spermiozeugma reversibly. The optimum temperature for the production of spermiozeugma is 15°C. Photoperiods must be perceived by means of the compound eyes. Extirpation of both eyes results in a development of the gonads just as occurs in continuous darkness.Short days activate the corpora allata. The volume of these glands is correlated with the state of sexual maturity (formation of spermiozeugma, growth and filling of the accessory glands). Intra- and intersexual transplantations of active corpora allata into undeveloped male beetles maintained in long day photoperiods replace the short day influence.Very probably the gonadotropic hormone is a juvenile hormone. By injection of 10,11-farnesyl-methyl-ester or a synthetic juvenile hormone, sexual maturity can be initiated. 相似文献

Juvenile hormone III biosynthesis by corpora allata of adult female Leucophaea maderae was measured by an in vitro radiochemical assay. In fed females, JH III synthesis increases more than 20-fold after mating to a peak of 55 pmol/pair/h on day 9 and then rapidly declines. This increase in JH III synthesis concomitant with rapid oocyte growth in mated females is not observed in virgin females. The corpora allata from starved, virgin females appear to be inactive. The addition of 150 microM 2E,6E-farnesol (a) JH III precursor) to the incubation medium stimulates the corpora allata from starved, virgin females less than the corpora allata from starved, mated females. Both feeding and mating are necessary for the expression of a normal cycle of JH III synthesis in this cockroach. 相似文献

Adult mated females of the viviparous cockroach Diploptera punctata are moderately sensitive to precocenes. Oöcyte growth is inhibited and oviposition is delayed in insects topically treated with precocene II or precocene III. C16 juvenile hormone release by corpora allata of precocene-treated insects is markedly inhibited when compared to corpora allata of acetone-treated controls. Electron microscopy of the corpora allata reveals that precocene treatment results in a disorganisation of the intracellular organelles. Topically applied precocene II reaches a high concentration in the haemolymph (0.5 mM 2 hr after topical application of 250 μg). C16 juvenile hormone release by isolated corpora allata is inhibited by precocenes in vitro; half-maximal inhibition over a 3 hr period is obtained at 0.4 mM precocene II. In vitro inhibition of corpora allata by precocene II concentrations higher than 1 mM rapidly destroys the glands as evidenced by electron microscopy (total disintegration of cellular organelles) and by the virtual cessation of C16 juvenile hormone synthesis by the corpora allata. Inhibition of C16 juvenile hormone release by precocene is time-dependent and is not reversible over the short-term incubation in vitro. This inhibition does not appear to be related to the spontaneous activity of the glands in vitro, and it can be reduced by two epoxidase inhibitors. Precocenes are pro-allatocidins in this species: they are bioactivated within the corpora allata to cytotoxic epoxides. 相似文献

As in the tobacco hornworm Manduca sexta, the synthetic juvenile hormone analogue ETB (ethyl 4-[2-(tert-buthylcarbonyloxy)butoxy]benzoate) showed both juvenile hormone-like and anti-juvenile hormone activities in the silkworm, Bombyx mori. When ETB was topically applied to allatectomized 4th-instar larvae, the compound counteracted the effects of allatectomy, such as induction of precocious metamorphosis and black pigmentation in the larval markings. Therefore, ETB had juvenile hormone activity, but it could neither induce brown pigmentation in the markings nor induce an extra-larval moult as can juvenile hormone.When intact 3rd-instar larvae were treated with the compound, the majority underwent precocious metamorphosis in the 4th-instar, and later formed fertile miniature adults. Some moulted into larval-pupal intermediates or 5th-instar larvae with darkened larval markings and/or with abnormality of specific regions of the silk-gland. The optimal dose for such anti-juvenile effects was about 1–10 μg/larva, and higher doses showed less activity. Such anti-juvenile hormone effects of ETB were counteracted by administration of the juvenile hormone analogue, methoprene, before a certain critical time in the 4th-instar. The corpora allata of treated larvae appeared cytologically normal, and the corpora allata from ETB-induced miniature moths secreted juvenile hormone when implanted into allatectomized 4th-instar larvae. 相似文献
