In vitro effect of methyl farnesoate on the vitellogenin content of ovary and hepatopancreas, in the crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus

Vitellogenin levels were determined in pieces of either ovary or hepatopancreas taken from females of the crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus during both early pre-reproductive and reproductive periods, and exposed in vitro to 0.15, 1.5, or 15 μM of the juvenoid methyl farnesoate (MF). A significant acc...
