QTL analysis of cocoon shell weight identifies BmRPL18 associated with silk protein synthesis in silkworm by pooling sequencing
Abstract Mechanisms that regulate silk protein synthesis provide the basis for silkworm variety breeding and silk gland bioreactor optimization. Here, using the pooling sequencing-based methodology, we deciphered the genetic basis for the varied silk production in different silkworm strains. We iden...

Here, using the pooling sequencing-based methodology, we deciphered the genetic basis for the varied silk production in different silkworm strains.

BMGN011620 encodes the 60S ribosomal protein, L18, which is an indispensable component of the 60S ribosomal subunit; therefore we named it BmRPL18.
