Rearing temperature influences food consumption, conversion and cocoon production in silkworm Bombyx mori L. Young age $({1^st}to{3^rd} instar)$ worms of Pure Mysore, a multivoltine were reared at 26, 28, 30 and $32^{\circ}C$ followed by combinations of these temperature levels during late age $({4^th} and {5^th} instar)$. Food consumption, conversion, larval duration and growth for each instar were recorded. The influence of combinations of these temperature levels during rearing on survival and cocoon production was assessed. Food consumption increased with the temperature up to $4^th$ instar and decreased during $5^th$ instar. Temperature beyond $28^{\circ}C$ during young age followed by higher temperature ($30^{\circ}C$ and above) has shown deleterious effect on cocoon production. The paper discusses the rearing performance in relation to food intake and conversion under the tested temperature levels.

The objective of this research was to characterize of the silkworm that might be recognized to the Korean native strains. The eleven strains of Korean race used in this study, which is cultured in Korea and Japan seri-cultural research organs. Most of Korean varieties were three molting and univoltine, comparatively longer larval duration than the trimolter general. The egg characters of varieties showed short-eliptic shape and dark brown egg color except for a few varieties which shows greenish dark brown. Also, most of varieties were showed the plain(p) and moricaud( $p_{M}$) in larval markings. Moric marking of the varieties also consist of innumerable dark grayish brown lines and dots, though somewhat darker and lighter than that of the wild silkworm, Bombyx mandarina. Cocoon characters variations of varieties were seen in the size, color and shape. 8 varieties were colored cocoon, i.e., yellow, greenish yellow and light green etc., the others were white cocon. The shape of cocons were consisted of constricted shallowly in the middle and attenuated at one or both ends of cocoon, i.e., spindle. The results of this study is sufficient evidence that Korean strains were shown as the one of regional origin strain of domesticated silkworm such as the Chinese and Japanese etc.c.

Ethanol extract of 20 botanicals in 3 concentrations i.e., 2.5%, 5% and 10% were evaluated for their efficacy to improve reproductive performance of mulberry silkworm (Bombyx mod L.) through feeding botanical enriched mulberry leaves during $2^{nd}$ day of $4^{th}$ age as well as $1^{st}$ and $3^{rd}$ day of $5^{th}$ age larvae. The preliminary screening was done by ranking the botanicals based on influence in most important reproductive contributing parameters such as single cocoon weight, effective rate of rearing, pupation rate, fecundity and recovery of eggs/kg cocoon. Five botanicals viz., Asparagus recemosus, Achyranthes aspera, Tribulus terrestris, Withania somnifera, Parthenium histerophorus ranked first were further evaluated at 8% 5% and 3% concentrations to confirm their effectiveness and standardize effective concentration. Among the rearing parameters, mature larval weight, shell ratio and number of cocoons/kg were not significantly influenced by the treatments. However, reproductive parameters such as effective rate of rearing (wt), pupation rate (%), fecundity (No.) and egg recovery (g)/kg cocoon were significantly (P<0.05) influenced by the botanicals. Higher fecundity and egg recovery were obtained on treatment with Withania somnifera irrespective of concentrations. However at 5% concentration, pupation rate, fecundity as well as egg recovery were found significantly higher than that of other concentrations, confirming its effectiveness for improving reproductive efficiency.

누에의 실용품종은 모두 일대교잡종을 이용하고 있어 교잡종제조과정에는 씨고치의 암수감별이 필수적인 작업과정이다. 번데기의 암수감별 수단으로는 번데기의 비중, 번데기 무게, 고치무게 등에 의해 많은 연구가 되어 왔지만 아직 미흡한 점이 많아 본 시험에서는 화상처리장치에 의한 고치모양과 고치무게 등에 의하여 여러가지 조합으로 번데기 암수판별 효과를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 측정된 데이터의 암수간 차의 평균에 있어서는 번데기무게, 견층종, 장경, 단경, 면적, 체적, 전견중, 장폭비율 등은 암이 크지만, 견층비율만은 수가 높게 나타났다. 2. 조사변량 단독에 의한 암수판별효과는 번데기 무게, 전견중, 견층비율, 체적, 면적, 견층중, 단경, 장경 순이었으며, 암수판별정도는 번데기무게가 97%, 전견중 96%로 매우 높게 나타났다. 3. 고치모양에 관계되는 변수만에 의한 암수판별효과는 품종에 따라서는 84%의 암수분리효율을 보였으나 전체평균 78%로 매우 저조하였다. 4. 번데기무게, 견층중, 전견중 및 견충비율에 의한 암수판별효율은 약 99%로 매우 높았으나 누에고치를 절개해야하는 문제가 남아있다. 5. 견종과 고치모양에 의한 시험에서는 전체평균 판별율이 98.7%로 견중에 관계하는 변수에 의한 것 보다는 판별정도가 낮지만, 전견중의 단독변수에 의한 것보다는 2.7%가 향상되었다. 6. 판별함수를 설정하는데에 최소유효샘플링수는 암수 각 15개씩 이상이면 충분한 것으로 분석되었다.

The combining abilities in the 5 newly evolved thermo tolerant breeds viz., SR6, SR7, SR8 SR9 and SR10 of silkworm Bombyx mori L. and their 15 hybrids were made in a line${\times}$tester crossing programme. Data were analysed for seven quantitative traits i.e., pupation rate, cocoon yield, cocoon weight, cocoon shell weight, cocoon shell ratio, filament length and raw silk percentage under optimum room temperature $(25{\pm}{1^{\circ}C})$ conditions (In case of high temperature $(36{\pm}{1^{\circ}C})$ stress conditions five economic traits except filament length and raw silk percentage) with 3 widely adapted testers i.e., KA, CSR2 and CC1 as lines (females) and testers (males) respectively. The performance at high temperature and low humidity conditions aye only taken into consideration for selecting the best lines/hybrids. Among the lines SR6 exhibited positive General combining ability (GCA) effects for pupation rate, cocoon yield, cocoon weight and cocoon shell ratio traits, followed by SR7 for pupation rate, cocoon yield and cocoon shell weight and cocoon shell ratio. Among testers, KA exhibited positive GCA effects for two quantitative traits cocoon yield, cocoon weight and CSR2 for cocoon shell weight and cocoon shell ratio under adverse temperature conditions. The hybrid SR6${\times}$CC1 and SR7${\times}$CSR2 exhibited significant positive Specific combining ability (SCA) effects for majority of the traits in high temperature stress conditions of rearing. The better parent value of heterosis(Heterobeltiosis) was exhibited by the hybrid SR6${\times}$CC1 for pupation rate, cocoon yield, cocoon weight and cocoon shell weight and SR7${\times}$CSR2 for all the trails evaluated under high temperature conditions. Based on the results, the lines SR6 and SR7 was judged as best combiners and the hybrids SR6${\times}$CC1 and SR7${\times}$CSR2 can be selected for commercial exploitation in tropical climate.

A new silkworm variety, Chunsujam, for spring rearing season is F$_1$ hybrid between Japanese race Jam145 bred by 8459/8711 and Chinese race Jam146 by 8544/M8626. Jam145, Japanese parent of the Chunsujam, showed high GCA in pupation rate and Jam146, Chinese parent, showed high GCA in pupation rate and single cocoon weight. In the local adaptability test performed at 8 local areas in spring of 1999, Chunsujam was 5% higher in larval weight, 3% in single cocoon weight, and 4% in cocoon yield from 10,000 of the 3rd molted larvae, respectively, than the check variety Baegokjam.

Utilization of the various cocoon beds were evaluated by raising the silkworm variety "Seul-ak${\times}$Soyang"according to cocoon quality produced in spring of 1969: Rotary cocoon bed, improved cocoon bed, grima cocoon bed, wood framed straw rope cocoon bed, and pine cocoon bed. In addition the economical analysis was made on the basis of cocoon price in spring of 1976. 1. The Rotary cocoon bed has economically much advantages in many ways; easy cocoon collection and percentage of best cocoon, percentage of cocoon shell, reelability and percentage of raw silk. It may give 8100 won for an extra income per box and increase by raising higher yielding variety. 2. The grima cocoon bed is superior to the wood framed straw rope cocoon bed, and the pine cocoon bed and it is comparatively easy set-up even though it is inferior to the improved cocoon bed in many characters.
