Popis: This paper studies the metabolism of the juvenile hormone, which affects gonads functioning in Drosophila melanogaster females under P-M hybrid dysgenesis. It is shown that dysgenic females grown at 29°C have increased levels of the juvenile hormone (its degradation and stress reactivity are reduced), which apparently is a compensatory response to ovarian hypoplasia.
