“…One peptide, known as Glomo-AKH I, Glomo-AKH or GmmAKH, has a sequence that differs from any known insect AKH (Kaufmann et al, 2009;Attardo et al, 2012;Caers et al, 2015). A second peptide has a sequence identical to the Phormia terraenovae hyperthrehalosaemic hormone (Phote-HrTH) (G€ ade et al, 1990) and the Drosophila melanogaster adipokinetic hormone (Drome-AKH) (Schaffer et al, 1990), and was previously named Glomo-AKH II, Phote-HrTH or GmmHrTH in tsetse flies (Kaufmann et al, 2009;Attardo et al, 2012;Caers et al, 2015). Here we designate AKH neuropeptides in G. m. morsitans as Glomo-AKH I and Glomo-AKH II, which are encoded by gmmakh and gmmhrth genes, respectively (Kaufmann et al, 2009;Attardo et al, 2012).…”
