Abstract

The presence of an additional brain in female Orchestia gammarella induces the inhibition of yolky oocyte growth followed by their lysis. The graft, deprived of external influences, secretes a factor resembling vitellogenesis-inhibiting hormone. Oocytes undergoing primary vitellogenesis also appear to be target cells of vitellogenesis-inhibiting hormone.
