Borkovec and Masler’s timely new volume - Insect Neurochemistry and Neurophysiology 1989 - provides a wide-ranging survey of forefront research in every key area of insect neuroscience by contributors who are internationally renowned authorities in their fields. Divided into three main sections - Neuroanatomy, Neurochemistry, and Neurophysiology, this vanguard collection of original research papers and reviews presented here cover a broad spectrum of topics, including: neuropeptides neurodevelopment neuroendocrinology blood brain barrier eclosion hormone gene neuroparsins hypertrehalosemic hormone oostatic hormone sex pheromone biosynthesis corpora allata activity ecdysiotropins protein kinase C ecdysteroid production precocene II hypolipemic hormone neuroanatomy serotonergic modulation neurosecretory cells octopaminergic modulation tyramine-b-hydroxylase metabolism of inositol phosphates genetically engineered baculovirus pesticides juvenile hormone production endocrinology of embyrogenesis molt inhibition by azadirachtin prothoracicotropic hormone metabolic changes in nerve tissue regulation of vitellogenesis uptake and binding of ponasterone A gene expression during pupal-adult neurogenesis chemical regulators of female reproductive muscle function proctolin and female reproductive tissue immunochemistry. Insect Neurochemistry and Neurophysiology 1989 is an indispensable resource and reference for all workers in the neurosciences, entomology, pesticide research, and related areas.
