Disclosed are methods and systems for identifying compounds that act to modulate insect growth and/or development in a species-specific manner. Such systems and methods may provide for the identification of species-specific insecticides. The methods and systems of the invention may include at least one an isolated nucleic acid molecule that encodes a polypeptide comprising an ecdysone receptor (EcR) isoform from a first distinct species and a second isolated nucleic acid molecule comprising a DNA sequence that encodes a polypeptide comprising at least a portion of an Ultraspiracle (USP) protein from a second distinct species.
