Genetic Research of Silkworm

Genetic Research of Silkworm

Genetics is the study of the transmission and expression of genetic material in living organisms and the laws governing the variation that occurs in the process. It is one of the most fundamental sciences in the field of biology and an important theoretical basis for the breeding of good animal and plant species. Insect genetics deals with the chromosomes and genes of insects, sex determination and its inheritance, developmental genetics of insects, immunity and inheritance of insects, behavioural genetics of insects, population genetics and ecological genetics of insects, inheritance and evolution of insects, as well as genetically modified insects, at both the cellular and molecular levels.

Our Services for Genetic Research of Silkworm

The study of silkworms covers the species, morphological structure, habits, reproduction, development and genetics, classification, movement and historical development of the silkworm and other related characteristics and patterns of life activities.

Lifeasible provides genetic research of silkworm including Molecular Markers of Silkworm-to analyze the genetic diversity, genetic relationship, and evolutionary and kinship of silkworms, Gene Editing in Silkworm-to study the development of some silkworms by ZFNs, TALEN and CRISPR/Cas9, Silkworm Breeding-to breed excellent varieties of silkworm with excellent traits, Genomic Methylation Analysis of Bombyx Mori-to determine the epigenome sequence and analyze the functional significance of DNA methylation, Target Bisulfite Sequencing of Bombyx Mori-to validate methylation of subsequent target genes, and Bombyx Mori Genome Sequencing.
