Fig. 1. (A) Extracellular recording from the frontal connective in an isolated
frontal ganglion (FG) preparation. Bath application of 10-7 mol
l-1 Manduca ecdysis-triggering hormone (ETH) increased the
burst frequency. (B) Manduca pre-ecdysis-triggering hormone (PETH)
and ETH effects on the FG rhythm. Results are shown as the change in burst
frequency relative to control (means ± s.d., N=6, 6 and 9,
respectively; *P<0.05; NS, not significant). (C)
Manduca EH transiently inhibited the FG rhythm. Continuous
extracellular recording (as in A; arrow indicates time of EH application).
