昆虫滞育研究进展

Advances in insect diapause.

首先对昆虫滞育的若干名词概念作出解释,按照滞育过程的阶段特点划分为3个时期:(1)滞育前期(包括滞育诱导和滞育准备);(2)滞育期(包括滞育进入、滞育维持和滞育解除);(3)滞育后期。然后重点介绍这3个阶段近期分子和细胞水平上的重要工作,对一些科学问题进行讨论。

In the present paper, we defined some conceptions firstly. The diapause phases consisted of three successive phases ： （ 1 ） pre-diapause （ diapause induction and preparation） ; （2） diapause （ initiation, maintenance and termination）; and （3） post-diapause. Then important advances in recent research of diapause at the molecular and cellular level were introduced and some scientific problems were discussed.
