Abstract
⺠Follicular resorption in resting stage mosquitoes depends on nutritional quality. ⺠Follicular resorption is related to JH levels. ⺠Decrease in the nutritional status causes decrease in JH levels. ⺠An apoptotic cell-death mechanism is responsible for follicular resorption. ⺠JH mediates reproductive trade-offs in resting stage mosquitoes.
