title: Differential responsiveness of phosphorylase system and fat body carbohydrates of Poecilocerus pictus (Insecta) to hyperglycemic factors of crab (Crustacea) and scorpion (Arachnida).
abstract: Injection of hyperglycemic factors obtained from crab (Oziotelphusa senex senex) and scorpion (Heterometrus fulvipes) showed different effects on fat body phosphorylase activity and levels of total carbohydrates and glycogen in the grasshopper (Poecilocerus pictus). The former hyperglycemic principle phosphorolates glycogen whereas the latter does not.
