Nucleic Acid of the Fall Webworm, Hyphantria cunea Drury during its Development

미국흰불나방(Hyphantria cunea)의 核酸에 관한 硏究

1. The amounts of RNA and DNA were determined in the fall webworm, Hyphantria cunea Drury during the course of development from the egg to early adult stage. 2. The amounts of both nucleic acids were increased with the development of egg. 3. Both acids reached a maximum druing the stage of the 5th instar larva. 4. The amount of RNA was generally greater than that of DNA throughout the stages of development. 5. As the pupa developed, there was an increase in the amount of RNA and on the contrary, the amount of DNA decreased.

1. 미국흰불나방의 核酸을 發生 stage 에 따라 卵에서 成蟲까지 測定하였다. 2. 卵의 發生과 더불어 核酸量은 增加하였다. 3. RNA 와 DNA 는 成熟 5齡 幼蟲期에서 그의 最高値를 나타내었다. 4. 發生의 全 stage를 通하여 RNA 量은 DNA 量보다 一般的으로 높았다. 5. 용 이 發生되어 감에 따라 RNA 量은 增加하고 反對로 DNA 量은 減少하였다.
