Overview

Review highlights how fortifying mulberry leaves with vitamins and minerals improves larval and cocoon quality in Bombyx mori, suggesting enhanced silk production.

Key Points

  • Fortification of mulberry leaves with vitamins and minerals notably enhances larval development and cocoon quality in Bombyx mori.
  • Supplementation with 0.2% Vitamin C or 0.5% Riboflavin leads to significant improvements in growth, feed efficiency, and silk production.
  • Zinc treatment at 136 mg/kg considerably boosts all measured larval and cocoon parameters.
  • Optimal results were observed with moderate supplementation during the fifth instar, emphasizing the need for careful management in production.
