<strong>ABSTRACT</strong> Sericulture is agro based industry. India is the only country where all four kinds of silks viz. Mulberry, Muga, Tasar and Eri are commercially exploited. <em>Attacus atlas, </em>Linnaeus (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae) is wild silk worm of India. Its conservation and exploitation in silk production is essential component of wild silk technology development in India. Therefore, rearing technique of <em>A. atlas </em>has been given in the paper. Cocoons were formed within 35-43 days. Cocoon weight, shell weight, shell length, shell width and shell thickness were 9.4 g, 1.82

AbstractAlthough several factors influence herbivore insect distributions at any particular scale, the most important determinants are likely to differ between species with different life histories. Identifying what these factors are and how they relate to life history forms an important component of understanding the population dynamics of species, and the habitat requirements necessary for their conservation.

Abstract:

Sericulture is the process of cultivating silkworms and extracting silk from them. The caterpillars of the domestic silk moth (also called „Bombyx Mori‟) are the most commonly used silkworm species in sericulture. Other types of silkworms (such as Eri, Muga, and Tasar) are also cultivated for the production of „wild silks‟. Silk is known as the queen of textiles due to its softness, durability, and luster. Furthermore, the silk fibers provide characteristics that are superior toany other type of fiber (e.g., water absorbency, heat resistance, dyeing efficiency, and luster). This textile is obt

Abstract:

The Filippi’s glands (FGs), formerly “Lyonet’s glands”, are paired accessory organs associated with the silk glands. They are unique to Lepidoptera caterpillars and their exact role is not clear. The FGs are thought to be involved in the construction of a silk cocoon in bombycoid moths. FGs can differ in size and shape, therefore, in this study we attempt to find a correlation between FG morphology and phylogenetic position within the Bombycoidea. We use light and electron microscopy to examine the presence and morphology of FGs in a range of wild (giant) silk moths and several related species

Abstract:

Spiders use various combinations of silks, adhesives, and behaviors to ensnare and trap prey. A common but difficult to catch prey in most spider habitats are moths. They easily escape typical orb-webs because their bodies are covered in sacrificial scales that flake off when in contact with the web’s adhesives. This defense is defeated by spiders of the sub-family of Cyrtarachninae, moth-catching specialists who combine changes in orb-web structure, predatory behavior, and chemistry of the aggregate glue placed in those webs. The most extreme changes in web structure are shown by bolas spider

Males of the western spruce budworm, Choristoneura occidentalis Freeman, are attracted by pheromone which has been identified and synthesized (Cory et al. 1982; Silk et al. 1982). In response to pheromone, males will fly upwind and thus approach a bait on a fir limb, then land and persistently search near the bait, often locating it (Sower and Shorb 1985). Male budworm moths moving upwind toward a pheromone source are seen to use a wandering, left-and-right and up-and-down flight

Abstract:

The box tree moth (Cydalima perspectalis Walker, 1859; Lepidoptera: Crambidae) is an invasive species naturally distributed in Asia. The caterpillars in all developmental stages cause damage through defoliation of plants, and ultimately the death of the plant itself may occur. It is possible to recognize this species by its silk barriers and threads, and in the case of an intense attack, the entire plant will be covered with them. In Europe, this species’ presence was first recorded in 2007 in Germany and the Netherlands, and it is now widely distributed. In Croatia, its existence was first re

Abstract:

A Fusarium sp. was isolated from a 12-year-old Silk Tree (Albizia julibrissin) in a residential area of Redlands, CA. The scaffold branches and trunk exhibited gummosis, the sap oozing from fissures or intact bark. Internally the wood exhibited brown to black broad streaks of discoloration from the scaffold branches down into lateral roots below the root crown, similar to symptoms observed in Virginia (2). Wilted and dried foliage remained on the scaffold branches. Two-week-old cultures of the isolate grown on Komada (1) and acidified potato dextrose agar media developed short conidiophores, m

Abstract:

This month edition contains an account of clusters of H5N1 infection in humans in Azerbaijan [1]. The account is doubly rare: It describes the first occasion where the source is seemingly wild birds. Reading what happened is reassuring as the people infected had probably killed and defeathered infected swans. I.e. this was not casual exposure to wild birds but rather qualitatively similar to when humans are intimately exposed to sick domestic poultry, which remains the most potent risk factor (one recent analytic study came up with an odds ratio of 29 [2]).

Abstract:

IntroductionType 2 diabetes (T2D) is a significant problem, and lifestyle modifications including self-management are important. We have developed a structured individual-based lifestyle education (SILE) programme for T2D. With attention now being paid to techniques to change behaviour, we recently developed a behavioural type-specific SILE (BETSILE) programme. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the BETSILE programme compared with the SILE programme for reducing glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) in patients with T2D and special behavioural types by a cluster randomised controlled trial.Metho

Abstract:

Background. The degradation of coniferous forests dominated by siberian fir (Abies sibirica Ledeb.) as a consequence of outbreaks of the Siberian silkmoth (Dendrolimus sibiricus Tschetv.) gives rise to considerable environmental and economic damage at the regional level. An improved understanding of the ecology of the pest population in mountainous terrain will facilitate the development of a more effective monitoring system and the use of a digital terrain model to predict the spread of the outbreak. This will allow the implementation of timely active forest protection measures. Purpose. This

IntroductionInsomnia is a major public health concern. While cognitive behaviour therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is acknowledged as the best available intervention, there are unanswered questions about its wider dissemination, socioeconomic benefits and its impact on health resource utilisation. The aim of this randomised controlled trial (RCT) is to investigate the effectiveness of a fully automated online version of CBT-I compared with online patient education about sleep (PE). Outcome measures comprise changes in symptoms of insomnia, time off work due to sick leave as well as medication and h

IntroductionUnipolar depression is a public health problem and is the most common psychiatric disorder among people with long-term sick leave in Denmark. Patients with unipolar depression are often associated with deficits in cognitive function long after the affective symptoms have disappeared. This could explain the long-term sick leave among patients suffering from unipolar depression. Computer-based cognitive training has been used to increase cognitive function in other patient groups.ObjectivesIt is unknown whether cognitive functions are improved in patients with depression by help of a
