Abstract
Abstract. This review deals with those neuropeptidic hormones that are completely known in their primary structure together with the control processes that are linked directly or indirectly to development and reproduction. Actions are assessed for neuropeptides that regulate ecdysteroid and Juvenile Hormone production; oocyte growth or yolk deposition; and ecdysis and courtship behaviour. The combined data on the primary sequence, gene expression, biosynthesis, release, interaction with the receptor and mode of action provide an accurate account of the current knowledge on how these peptides function.
