miR-276 and miR-182013-5p modulate insect metamorphosis and reproduction via dually regulating juvenile hormone acid methyltransferase

Abstract Juvenile hormone (JH) represses insect metamorphosis and stimulates reproduction. JH titers are generally low in juveniles, drop to a nadir during metamorphosis, increase after eclosion and peak in vitellogenic phase. We found that Jhamt, a rate-limiting enzyme in JH biosynthesis, mirrors J...
