Impact of JH Signaling on Reproductive Physiology of the Classical Insect Model, <i>Rhodnius prolixus</i>
In adult females of several insect species, juvenile hormones (JHs) act as gonadotrophic hormones, regulating egg production. JH binds to its nuclear receptor, Methoprene tolerant (Met), triggering its dimerization with the protein Taiman (Tai). The resulting active complex induces transcription of...
