Abstract

|
|
This experiment was carried out to investigate the feeding effect of rutin (quercetin-3-o-ß-rutinoside) and r-aminobutyric acid(GABA) sprayed on mulberry leaves on silkworm growth. Amount of ingest, digest and feces showed no difference statistically except rutin. Rutin made 6% increase of amount of digest, compared to the control. However, rutin or GABA decreased maximaly silkworm weight by 28% during the experimental period. GABA showed body weight loss by 15%, rutin by 7% respectively, compared to the control. Rutin and GABA extended three days larval period and extended one day mounting period and decreased 15.4% and 9.1% in number of mounted silkworm compared with the control, respectively.
