Plants of the Asteraceae and Hypericaceae possess secondary compounds that induce photooxidation in insect herbivores that consume them. One of the well-established modes of action of these substances is peroxidation of membrane lipids. Some herbivor

The thiophenes alpha-terthienyl and methyl-alpha-terthienyl are found in many species of the family Asteraceae and are highly phototoxic to mosquito larvae. These compounds and a synthetic analogue, cyano-alpha-terthienyl, controlled Aedes intrudens

Many secondary plant compounds are capable of photoactivation resulting in the production of toxic species of oxygen. One mechanism of defense for insects feeding on phototoxic plants may be the presence of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dism

While it has been known for some time that certain species of plants contain photosensitizers, it is only recently that the raison d’etre of light activated toxins has been demonstrated. All of these photosensitizers fall into a diverse group of se

Photo-activated plant secondary compounds have been shown to be toxic to many organisms including insects. Insect defenses include behavioral mechanisms such as light avoidance, as well as specific biochemical defenses such as antioxidants and antiox

Neural factors were shown to inhibit corpora allata in vitro using a radiochemical assay for rates of juvenile hormone synthesis. Corpora allata with intact nerves to the brain were less active than isolated corpora allata. Corpora allata treated wit

High levels of cyclic AMP were found in the corpora allata of adult female Diploptera punctata. The adenylate cyclase activator forskolin caused a rapid, reversible and dose-dependent accumulation of cAMP in the corpora allata in vitro. The sensitivi

We have examined the effects of brain extracts on cAMP levels in the CA as well as their effect on JH biosynthesis in vitro. Brain extracts induced a dose-dependent elevation in intracellular cAMP levels (as measured by RIA) within 10 min of treatmen

The fIrst edition of the Science 0/ Photobiology edited by Kendric C. Smith (plenum Press, 1977) was a comprehensive textbook of photobiology, devoting a chapter to each of the subdisciplines of the fIeld. At the end of many of these chapters there w
