Borkovec and Masler's timely new volume-Insect Neurochemistry and Neurophysiology a [ 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: a [ neuropeptides a [ neurodevelopment a [ neuroendocrinology a [ blood-brain barrier a [ eclosion hormone gene a [ neuroparsins a [ hypertrehalosemic hormone a [ oostatic hormone a [ sex pheromone biosynthesis a [ corpora allata activity a [ ecdysiotropins a [ protein kinase C a [ ecdysteroid production a [ precocene II a [ hypolipemic hormone a [ neuroanatomy a [ serotonergic modulation a [ neurosecretory cells a [ octopaminergic modulationa [ tyramine-b-hydroxylase a [ metabolism of inositol phosphates a [ genetically engineered baculovirus pesticides a [ juvenile hormone production a [ endocrinology of embyrogenesis a [ molt inhibition by azadirachtin a [ prothoracicotropic hormone a [ metabolic changes in nerve tissue a [ regulation of vitellogenesis a [ uptake and binding of ponasterone A a [ gene expression during pupal-adult neurogenesis a [ chemical regulators of female reproductive muscle function a [ proctolin and female reproductive tissue immunochemistry.
Insect Neurochemistry and Neurophysiology a [ 1989 is an indispensable resource and reference for all workers in the neurosciences, entomology, pesticide research, and related areas.
