Mk. Ghosh et al., IMPACT OF CERTAIN BIOCHEMICAL-CONSTITUENTS OF FOOD LEAVES ON COCOON WEIGHT OF OAK TASAR SILKWORM ANTHERAEA-PROYLEI J (SATURNIIDAE, LEPIDOPTERA), Journal of advanced zoology, 16(1), 1995, pp. 44-47
The multiple correlation and Beta coefficient of cocoon weight of Anth
eraea proylei with total sugar and crude fibre constituents of Quercus
serrata leaves have been studied. Positive and significant impact of
total sugar and negative effect of crude fibre have been found on the
cocoon weight of this silkworm.
