Résumé

Les taux d'α-et de β-ecdysone ont été déterminés dans l'hémolymphe dePieris brassicae au cours du dernier stade larvaire et de la métamorphose. Parallèlement, les taux de synthése d'ADN, d'ARN et de protéines ont été mesurés dans les ébauches alaires. La comparaison de ces données a été discutée en fonction du mode d'action possible des deux hormones.
