The study of the molecular biology of invertebrate systems is quite rich in opportunity. Insects and other invertebrates serve in a central capacity or role as vectors or reservoirs of plant and animal disease agents and are themselves susceptible to numerous pathogens. The diversity of species that have evolved in a comparable diversity of environmental situations has generated this vast array of relationships, many of which are essential linkages in a disease cycle or fundamental to crop protection. 

The observation by Fritz et al.. (28) that avermectin s effects on the lobster muscle could not be reversed by washing also supports the above conclusion that these effects in invertebrate systems may not be directly related to GABA itself, because free GABA would be eliminated by extensive washing. Similarly, the possibility of the involvement of benzodiazepine receptors in the action of avermectin on the American cockroach could be excluded since little effect on the benzodiazepine receptor by avermectin was found ... 

If, indeed, axon repulsion is an important mechanism for growth cone guidance in vertebrates, it is highly likely that it also plays a role in invertebrates. To date, however, invertebrate systems have provided little direct evidence for axon repulsion in vivo. 

While the identity of cell adhesion receptor molecules remains unclear, there is considerable evidence that the intracellular signal transduction pathways which link reception of an extracellular signal with changes in growth cone behaviour involve changes in the level of intracellular Ca + ([Ca +li). Again, invertebrate systems have made a significant contribution in this area.
