This review focuses on neuropeptides and peptide hormones, the largest and most diverse
class of neuroactive substances, known in Drosophila and other animals to play roles in …

Studies of neuropeptide and peptide hormone signaling are coming of age in Drosophila
due to rapid developments in molecular genetics approaches that overcome the difficulties …

This book provides a modern, synthetic overview of interactions between insects and their
environments from a physiological perspective that integrates information across a range of …

Baculoviruses are known to regulate many insect populations in nature. Their host-
specificity is very high, usually restricted to a single or a few closely related insect species …

Insects are the most ecologically important multicellular heterotrophs in terrestrial systems.
They play critical roles in ecological food webs, remain devastating agricultural and medical …

Apart from providing an up-to-date review of the literature, considerable emphasis was
placed in this article on the historical development of the field of “crustacean eyestalk …

The article discusses advances in osmoregulation and excretion with emphasis on how
multicellular animals in different osmotic environments regulate their milieu intérieur …

Neuropeptides referred to as neuropeptide F (NPF) and short neuropeptide F (sNPF) have
been identified in numerous invertebrate species. Sequence information has expanded …

▪ Abstract Neuropeptides regulate all important physiological, developmental, and
behavioral processes in insects. Here, I review two major physiological events that are …
