Overview

Evaluation of medicinal plant extracts on growth performance of silkworms, indicating a promising eco-friendly approach.

Key Points

  • Methanolic extracts significantly improved larval weight and reduced larval duration in silkworms.
  • Curcuma longa at 2% concentration led to improved cocoon weight and shell weight compared to control.
  • A randomized design with various treatments was used to assess the impact of plant extracts.
  • Supplementation with selected medicinal plants may enhance silk productivity and health in sericulture.
