Abstract excerpt
Bombyx mori, the mulberry silkworm, exhibits wide variability in yield and developmental attributes. The genetics of yield expression, shown to be of polygenic nature, is poorly studied in silkworm. To identify markers associated with 10 selected yield traits, multiple regression analysis (MRA) and discriminant function analysis (DFA) were applied on 64 markers generated with eight RFLP-derived...
