The embryonic role of juvenile hormone in the firebrat, Thermobia domestica, reveals its function before its involvement in metamorphosis
To gain insights into how juvenile hormone (JH) came to regulate insect metamorphosis, we
studied its function in the ametabolous firebrat, Thermobia domestica. Highest levels of JH …
