Background

Induction of molting in Drosophila coincides with release from the ring gland of ecdysone (20-hydroxyecdysone). Prior to each of the larval molts, at pupariation, at pupation and during metamorphosis, hormone is released in carefully timed spurts, coinciding with major morphological transitions.
