Abstract The photoperiodic mechanism distinguishes between long and short days, the circadian clock system is involved in this process. Although necessity of genes for responses has been demonstrated many species, how contributes to mechanisms remains unclear. A comprehensive study, including functional analysis relevant physiology their expressing cells, necessary understand molecular cellular mechanisms. Since Drosophila melanogaster exhibits a shallow photoperiodism, have studied non-model starting with brain microsurgery neuroanatomy, followed by genetic manipulation some insects. Here, we review discuss involvement terms neural networks We also recent advances underlying insects snails, additionally systems whose photoperiodism hardly addressed yet. Brain neurosecretory insulin-like peptide / diuretic hormone44- pars intercerebralis neurones bean bug Riptortus pedestris caudo-dorsal cell hormone -expressing cells snail Lymnaea stagnalis , both promote egg laying under electrical excitability attenuated medium which reduces oviposition. are mediated glutamate control gene period . Thus, now able assess response activity investigate upstream mechanisms, that is, counter.
