Prothoracicotropic Hormone Bioassay: Pupal-Adult Bombyx Assay: (prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH)/Bombyx mori/Samiu cynthia ricini/pupal assay). 1983
Blockage of adult development by brain removal and its resumption by application of the prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH) were studied using pupae of a racial hybrid J-122 × C-115 of Bombyx mori.
