Sexual Differences of Cocoon weight, Cocoon Shell Weight, and Cocoon Shell Percentage in the Sex- limited Silkworm Strains, Bombyx mori L.,
한성계통의 전견중, 견층중, 견층비율에 대한 성차
Abstract
Using sexual differences between female and male as the indication of the degree of the physiological distrubance in the sex-limited larval marking strains or sex-limited egg colour strains, it was investigated whether the physiological distrubance caused y the translocated autosome fragment on the W-sex determination chromosome, have an effect on expression of the three quantitative characters; cocoon weight, cocoon shell weight, and cocoon shell percentage in the female silkworm. The mean values of the ratios of female to male the above two experimental groups were 127%, 107%, 85%, in cocoon shell weight, and cocoon shell percentage, respectively. On the other hand, those from the three normal stains, namely the basic stock strains, white egg strains, and hybrids were 129% for cocoon weight, 110% for cocoon shell weight, and 85% for cocoon shell percentage, respectively. From the results, it comes to the conclusion that the translocated autosome fragment on the W-chromosome has no influences on the expression of the quantitative characters of the female silkworm because sexual differences of the sex-limited strains were very similar to those of the three normal strains.
한성반문 및 한성란색 계통잠에 있어서 전좌염색체로 인한 생리적 결함이 전견중, 견층중 및 견층비율에 미치는 영향을 이들에 관한 성차를 지표로 하여 검토한 결과, 한성 및 비한성 계통견의 전견중의 성차 평균치는 각각 127%, 129%, 견층중의 성차는 각각 107%, 110%, 견층비율의 성차는 공히 85%였다. 이상의 결과에서 한성반문 및 한성 난색계통잠은 전견중, 견층중, 견층비율 등의 실용형질에 관한 한 전좌된 염색체편에 기인하는 생리적 결함은 극히 미소한 것으로 생각된다.
