The biochemical effects of juvenile hormone III (JH III) on developing embryos from treated female Argas (Persicargas) arboreus Kaiser, Hoogstraal and Kohls were examined. Exogenous JH III resulted in a decrease in total proteins (P less than 0.001) only during the first 2 d of embryogenesis. There was no significant difference (P greater than 0.05) between RNA and DNA content in eggs from control and JH III-treated females. No significant difference (P greater than 0.05) was observed between control and JH III eggs in their lipid or phospholipid contents throughout embryogenesis. A total of 14-17 protein bands and 6-8 glycoprotein bands were separated by electrophoresis during embryogenesis of A. arboreus with some differences in mobility ratio between bands from control and JH III eggs. Differences in activity and isozyme patterns of malic acid, lactic acid, glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, acid phosphatase, and alkaline phosphatase were not observed during embryogenesis of control and JH III-treated A. arboreus. Differences were observed in esterase activity.
