| Zusammenfassung: | This study was carried out to investigate a role of the juvenile hormone analog, fenoxycarb (FC) in terminating the reproductive diapause in the black rice bug, Scotinophara lurida (Burmeister) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae). FC-treated adults collected at different dates developed their ovaries sooner than untreated ones. Topical application of FC accelerated diapause termination of field-collected S. lurida in which FC- treated adults exhibited early oviposition. In FC- treated males, development of their accessory glands and testes accelerated appeared to be prompted. These results suggest that various physiological overwintering traits related to diapause in this species may in part be under gonadotrophic endocrine control. KCI Citation Count: 1 |
