High-quality genome assembly of the silkworm, Bombyx mori.
Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2019 In 2008, the genome assembly and gene models for the domestic silkworm, Bombyx mori, were published by a Japanese and Chinese collaboration group. However, the genome assembly contains a non-negligible number of misassembled and gap regions due to the ...

Analysis of genes influencing the feeding of Bombyx mori by genome resequencing
Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2022 Bombyx mori belonging to the Lepidoptera family of insects, is an oligophagous insect that feeds on mulberry leaves. But why the silkworm has a soft spot for mulberry leaves is still a scientific mystery.

Combined effect of Cameo2 and CBP on the cellular uptake of lutein in the silkworm, Bombyx mori. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Formation of yellow-red color cocoons in the silkworm, Bombyx mori, occurs as the result of the selective delivery of carotenoids from the midgut to the silk gland via the hemolymph. This process of pigment transport is thought to be mediated by specific

A determining factor for insect feeding preference in the silkworm, Bombyx mori
PLoS Biology, 2019 Feeding preference is critical for insect adaptation and survival. However, little is known regarding the determination of insect feeding preference, and the genetic basis is poorly understood. As a model lepidopteran insect with economic importance, the

The biogenesis pathway of tRNA-derived piRNAs in Bombyx germ cells. [PDF]
, 2017 Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) function in translational machinery and further serves as a source of short non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs). tRNA-derived ncRNAs show differential expression profiles and play roles in many biological processes beyond translation ...
