## Abstract Changes in the steroidogenic competence of prothoracic glands and their modulation by juvenile hormone (JH) were examined in recessive trimolters(__rt__)of the silkworm, __Bombyx mori__. These __rt__ mutants have four larval instars rather than the five larval instars of normal silkworm
