Abstract :
Growth and development of insects are under the control of hormones, including pro- thoraco-tropic-hormones (brain hormone), ecdysteroids and juvenile hormones (JH). The peptide hormone secreted from the brain controls the secretion of the moulting hormone (ecdysone) from the prothoracic gland. Ecdysone is responsible for cellular programming and together with JH, initiating for he moulting process. When JH levels secreted from the corpora allata are high, the epidermis is programmed for a larval,moulting otherwise the epidermis is programmed for metamorphosis.JHs control a number of processes such as embryogenesis, moulting and metamorphosis, reproduction, diapause, communication, migration, caste differentiation, pigmentation, silk production and phase transformation. Instead, many JH analogs (JHAs) became attractive candidates for pest control because of the ease of synthesizing these analogs and their which was action more selective than those of other peptide and steroid hormones.
