Abstract: Abstract: The zeitgeber plays an important role in the output and input loop of circadian rhythms clock in lepidopteron, which has large differences in the aspects of protein evolution and molecular interaction network with the classic mode insects such as Drosophila melanogaster. In this article, the effects of the circadian clock on hatching, eating, growth, metamorphosis, reproduction, diapause, calling behavior and migration in lepidopteron were summarized, as well as the research progress in core genes of clock signal input circuit in lepidopteron such as Cry, Per and Tim. Then the differences of the biological clock feedback loop between lepidopteron and mammals or Drosophila were compared and analyzed. Through above analysis, we introduced the advantage of lepidopteron as an experimental animal for studying temperature zeitgeber and the peripheral clock mechanism.
