Summary

Juvenile hormone hemolymph titres have been determined by radioimmunoassay at the beginning of imaginal life in the cricketAcheta domesticus. JH III levels increased during previtellogenesis and at the onset of vitellogenesis in the successive waves of ovocytes. Vitellogenin synthesis started between the 24th and 40th h of imaginal life after bursts of juvenile hormone production and before any ecdysteroïd had appeared in either the hemolymph or the ovaries.
