Two insect storage proteins, OfSP1 (75 kDa) and OfSP2 (72 kDa), were purified using three different chromatographies from the hemolymph of Omphisa fuscidentalis larvae during diapause, and their genes were cloned. OfSP1 and OfSP2 concentrations in the hemolymph were high during diapause. During pupa...
