A delay in feeding a protein meal to the female blow-fly following allatectomy results in inhibition of follicular development in the previtellogenic stage. On the other hand, a protein meal given immediately after the operation permits 55% of the flies that do not deposit yolk in their oocytes fail to do so because of the absence of a corpus allatum hormone necessary for the synthesis of vitellogenin.
切除咽侧体后延迟给雌性丽蝇喂食蛋白质餐会导致卵黄生成前期卵泡发育受到抑制。另一方面,手术后立即给予蛋白质餐,55% 的雌蝇卵母细胞无法沉积卵黄,这是因为缺乏合成卵黄蛋白原所需的咽侧体激素。
