Electrophoretic study of haemolymphatic proteins in Ceratitis capitata has allowed to establish a proteic sexual dimorphism in this insect. This consists in a proteic fraction which is specific to the male and which appears at the imaginal ecdysis and stays during all the imaginal stage and in 3 other fractions which are characteristic to the female. Immuno electrophoretic study showed that these female proteins could be considered as vitellogenins. The nature and the mode of incorporation of those proteins in the oocyte are discussed.
对地中海实蝇血淋巴蛋白质的电泳研究已能够确定这种昆虫存在蛋白质性二态性。这表现为一种雄性特有的蛋白质组分，它在成虫蜕皮时出现，并在整个成虫阶段持续存在，以及另外三种雌性特有的组分。免疫电泳研究表明，这些雌性蛋白质可被视为卵黄原蛋白。文中讨论了这些蛋白质在卵母细胞中的性质和掺入方式。
