molting (ecdysis),
development and, to a

molting hormones (ecdysone and its homologues) are
generally called ecdysteroids.
Ecdysteroids act as
moulting hormones of
arthropods but also

- Some
ecdysteroids,
including ecdysone and 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E), are
produced by both
plants and arthopods.
Besides those, over 250
