Emerging Nutritional and Climate-resilient Strategies in Mulberry for Enhanced Cocoon Quality in Sericulture

Kruthika M S, Rakshitha K R, N M Praveen Kumar Gowda, Bhuvaneshwar Rajesh Naik & Pritish Chavan · Archives of Current Research International · 2025

Sericulture relies fundamentally on the nutritional quality of mulberry (Morus spp.) leaves, the exclusive feed for the silkworm, Bombyx mori L. In recent years, efforts have intensified to improve cocoon yield and silk quality through strategic nutritional enrichment of mulberry...
