To continuously monitor ovipositor movements a new actograph was devised; it was composed of a radioelement glued at the ventral tip of the ovipositor, a scintillation probe to detect ovipositor movements and a microcomputer to store and process data. Immature and mature virgin females were able to perform ovipositor movements. The removal of the ovaries did not prevent the onset of ovipositor movements. The removal of the corpora allata carried out 6 to 8 days before imaginal moult prevented the onset of these movements. Injections of JH III restored the ovipositor movements previously abolished by allatectomy.
为了持续监测产卵器的运动，设计了一种新的活动记录器；它由一个粘贴在产卵器腹端的无线电元件、一个检测产卵器运动的闪烁探头以及一个存储和处理数据的微型计算机组成。未成熟和成熟的处女雌虫都能够进行产卵器运动。切除卵巢并不能阻止产卵器运动的开始。在成虫羽化前6至8天切除咽侧体可阻止这些运动的开始。注射保幼激素III可恢复先前因切除咽侧体而消失的产卵器运动。
