Abstract excerpt
The silk gland (SG) is characterized by the synthesis and secretion of silk protein in the economically important silkworm, Bombyx mori L. (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae). Nd and Nd-s are two fibroin-secretion-deficient silkworm mutants. MicroRNA (miRNA) plays an important role in many biological processes, such as cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Using the Dazao silkworm as a control, we explored...
