Abstract

The article presents the results of studies of high-silk high-inbred lines of silkworm Bombyx mori L. G2, G4, G6 and G7 in terms of viability and productivity to obtain high quality insect biomaterial. Selective lines are of interest for study due to high silkiness and high inbreeding, as they were subject to constant rigorous selection by selection indices for silkiness and silk weight for eleven generations with individual selection of pairs for crossing. It is selection techniques that can increase the efficiency of insect production to meet the needs of modern high-tech areas. Comparative evaluation of high-silk high-inbred lines in terms of viability and productivity showed that the set of biological and technological indicators as the best were the lines G6 and G7. With the best indicators of viability of caterpillars in spring feeding 88.25 ± 2.387% (p≤0.001), the yield of varietal cocoons 3.08 ± 0.113 kg and the percentage of varietal cocoons 84.47 ± 1.995% was dominated by line G7, which was selected for the study of caterpillars stages and formation of cocoons. According to the results of summer feeding was selected as the best - line G6, which had the highest viability of caterpillars (71.8 ± 4.18%) and its direct hybrids with other lines, which had consistently high rates in the range of 79.8-83, 1%. Reciprocal combinations of the G6 line with G2 and G7 also had high caterpillar viability (79.14 and 78.98%, respectively). This indicates a high specific combination ability of the line on the indicator under study, which is the basis for research work on this selective feature. The development of high-quality biomaterial of silkworm helps to expand the possibilities of its use in various fields. In pharmacology and medicine, as a source of chitosan, in the environmental sphere, as a test object of bioindication research, in animal husbandry, as a valuable feed resource. Traditional areas of its use, in particular as a producer of natural silk, remain relevant.
