Ovarian Development and Vitellogenin Gene Expression under Heat Stress in Silkworm, Bombyx mori

The present study observed the effect of heat stress on ovarian development, fecundity, and vitellogenin gene expression in silkworm, Bombyx mori. The result showed that the heat shock treatment to spinning larvae and pupae at 39°C (1 h and 2 h) did not cause any adverse effect on the reproductive p...
