Abstract: | Summary Precocene II causes an irreversible regression of corpora allata in young 4th instar nymphs of the migratory locust. Within 2 h after application, the cells collapse. Cell fragments are subsequently phagocytosed by haemocytes.Acknowledgment. Thanks are due to Dr G. B. Staal of Zoecon Corporation for the gift of precocene II, and to the Department of Virology for the use of the electron microscope facilities. |
