Structure Determination of a Natural Juvenile Hormone Isolated from a Heteropteran Insect
Figure 7
Juvenilizing activity of JHSB3 (1), its stereoisomers and 10R-JH III on Plautia stali. Last instar nymphs were treated with a test compound. Following the final molt, lengths of forewing (a) and scutellum (b) relative to the width of pronotum were determined. S on the horizontal axis indicates solvent control. Each datum point and error bar represents average value ± SD (). Asterisks indicate that the average value was significantly different from that of the solvent control (Steel’s test, ) [14].
