Abstract:
Silkworm hybrids are produced in efforts to improve the yield of silkworm rearing, whereas these genetic characteristics greatly differ among groups of hybrids (Raju and Krishnamurthy, 1995). So, the identification and evaluation of the performance of hybrids in different seasons are very important for silkworm breeding and sericulture. In this research, we evaluated the performance of 15 new silkworm hybrids, which evolved in the Iran Silkworm Research Center from pure lines in order to select the most-production hybrids for commercial application.
