| Abstract | Eclosion hormone (EH) is a 62-amino acid neuropeptide that initiates the ecdysis behavior of insects. The EH-encoding gene of the tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta, was isolated by using a designed 72-mer oligonucleotide probe. Sequence analysis of this gene and its corresponding cDNA showed that the EH gene is 7.8 kilobases and consists of three exons. Exon I is totally nontranslated; exon II contains a 26-amino acid signal peptide and amino acids 1-4 of the EH peptide, and exon III encodes the remainder of the peptide. The EH gene is present in a single copy per haploid genome and transcribes an 0.8-kb mRNA that is expressed in larval, diapausing pupal, and developing adult brains but not in the ventral nerve cord or in nonneural tissues. In situ hybridization showed that the EH gene is expressed in two pairs of ventromedial neurosecretory cells in brains of both larvae and developing adults. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
