英文摘要	Animals show photoperiodic responses in physiology and behavior to adapt to seasonal changes. Recent genetic analyses have demonstrated the significance of circadian clock genes in these responses. However, the importance of clock genes in photoperiodic responses at the cellular level and the physiological roles of the cellular responses are poorly understood. The bean bug Riptortus pedestris shows a clear photoperiodic response in its reproduction. In the bug, the pars intercerebralis (PI) is an important brain region for promoting oviposition. Here, we analyzed the role of the photoperiodic neuronal response and its relationship with clock genes, focusing on PI neurons. Large PI neurons exhibited photoperiodic firing changes, and high firing activities were primarily found under photoperiodic conditions suitable for oviposition. RNA interference-mediated knockdown of the clock gene period abolished the photoperiodic response in PI neurons, as well as the response in ovarian development. To clarify whether the photoperiodic response in the PI was dependent on ovarian development, we performed an ovariectomy experiment. Ovariectomy did not have significant effects on the firing activity of PI neurons. Finally, we identified the output molecules of the PI neurons and analyzed the relevance of the output signals in oviposition. PI neurons express multiple neuropeptides-insulin-like peptides and diuretic hormone 44-and RNA interference of these neuropeptides reduced oviposition. Our results suggest that oviposition-promoting peptidergic neurons in the PI exhibit a circadian clock-dependent photoperiodic firing response, which contributes to the photoperiodic promotion of oviposition. © 2021 National Academy of Sciences.
