Silkworms are caterpillars that make silk.
The French scientist Louis Pasteur demonstrated that a fungus, specifically the pathogen Beauveria bassiana, caused the disease known as "silkworm disease" or " pébrine" in silkworms. His research in the 19th century revealed the connection between the fungus and the decline of silkworm populations, leading to significant advancements in the understanding of microbial diseases and their effects on agriculture. Pasteur’s work laid the foundation for modern microbiology and disease control.
The larva of a silkworm moth is called silkworm caterpillar.
The phylum of silkworm is Arthropoda.
The disease commonly associated with sericulture is "silkworm disease," primarily caused by pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. One of the most notable diseases affecting silkworms is "Bombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus" (BmNPV), which can lead to significant mortality in silkworm populations. Other diseases include bacterial infections, such as those caused by Bacillus thuringiensis, and fungal infections like Beauveria bassiana. Effective disease management is crucial for maintaining healthy silkworm stocks and ensuring successful silk production.
