3 main periods of imaginal development: juvenility, reproduction, ageing, were established in Acheta domestica and characterized by morphological and functional features of some organs (integument, wings, fat body, wing muscles, ovaries, and body proportions). Allatectomized crickets remain in the first period up till the day of death; this allowed to suggest that the hormone of corpora allata in imago controls the normal correlated development of different organs and tissues and ensures the transition to subsequent periods of imaginal ontogenesis. In allatectomized crickets of both the sexes, the duration of imaginal life is markedly longer and the fecundity of females is much lower. It is suggested that the hormone of corpora allata controls the life span and the fecundity independently.
在家蟋蟀中确定了成虫发育的3个主要时期：幼年期、繁殖期、衰老期，并通过某些器官（体表、翅膀、脂肪体、翅肌、卵巢和身体比例）的形态和功能特征来表征。切除咽侧体的蟋蟀直到死亡都停留在第一个时期；这表明成虫中咽侧体的激素控制着不同器官和组织的正常相关发育，并确保向成虫个体发育的后续时期过渡。在两性切除咽侧体的蟋蟀中，成虫寿命明显更长，而雌虫的繁殖力则低得多。有人认为，咽侧体的激素独立控制寿命和繁殖力。
