Abstract

The female fat body of a moth and a roach incorporated labeled amino acids in vitro into substances precipitable by antibodies formed in response to the sex-limited vitellogenic blood proteins of these species. The fat body of males failed to do so, as did that of females before the appearance of these proteins in the blood.
