Bombyx mori and Hyalophora cecropia have polytrophic-meroistic ovaries, in which each follicle is a functional developing unit consisting of one oocyte and an anterior cap-forming cluster of seven nurse cells of germ cell origin encapsulated by a monolayer of thousands of follicular epithelial cells.
cAMP-stimulated termination of vitellogenesis in Hyalophora cecropia: formation of a diffusion barrier and the loss of patency.
Isolation and characterization of isolectins with galactose/N-acetyl galactosamine specificity from hemolymph of the giant silkworm Hyalophora cecropia.
Limiting effects of low leaf-water content on the nitrogen utilization, energy budget, and larval growth of Hyalophora cecropia (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae).
Several other zones show evidence of Haldane's rule (e.g., Thomomys, Patton 1973; Phytomyza, Block 1975; Bufo, Feder 1979; Hyalophora, Collins 1984; Ficedula, Tegelstrom and Gelter 1990); and there may well be more, because in many cases the necessary crosses have not been performed and in some the phenomenon has not been addressed.
