Abstract: Distribution and degradation of oostatic peptides in the selected organs of flesh fly Neobellieria bullata was investigated using tritium labeled molecules. The degradation of peptides proceeded fast at both the amino and carboxy termini and resulted in formation of transient tetra and tripeptide sequences.
