Abstract The aim of this study was to identify the production capacity six commercial silkworm Bombyx mori L. (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae) lines (numbers 31, 32, 103, 104, 153, and 154), which were contaminated with Nosema bombycis Nageli spores (10 3 or 10 5 per ml), fungus responsible for pebrine (pepper disease) in silkworms. Effects two fungal Microsporidia concentrations tested on feeding either treated (with 1.0% Lactobacillus rhamnosus probiotics 0.5% Echinacea purpurea plant extract)...
Pébrine is the most important disease of silkworm, Bombyx mori (L.) (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae), and caused by Nosema bombycis (Nägeli) (Dissociodihaplophasida: Nosematidae). We investigated effect N. infection on total hemocyte count (THC) differential (DHC) in hemolymph a disease-resistant line (Line 104) susceptible 153) reared under optimum conditions. Fifth-instar silkworms were inoculated with microsporidia spore suspension. Hemolymph was collected second, fourth sixth days after...
