- Title
EFFICACY OF DIFFERENT TAPIOCA VARIETIES ON LARVAL GROWTH AND QUANTITATIVE COCOON CHARACTERS OF ERI SILKWORM, SAMIA RICINI BOISD.
- Authors
Hazarika, M.; Dutta, L. C.
- Abstract
The efficacy of different tapioca varieties on larval growth and quantitative cocoon characters of eri silkworm revealed that the larvae reared on H-97 variety performed better with shorter larval duration in respect of larval growth parameters such as larval weight (full grown and mature), silkgland weight, silkgland tissue somatic index, effective rate of rearing and cocoon parameters viz., cocoon weight, shell weight and shell ratio compared to other varieties and spring rearing accounted better for larval growth and cocoon characters.
