Abstract

The application of SeriMore on Bombyx mori larvae has been proved to be significance in the sericulture industry. SeriMore is a plant extract based growth Promoter formulation based on bakuchiol extracted from Psoralea coryllifolia, necessary nutritional components and synergistic factors. The effect of a SeriMore (0.1 µl/silkworm larvae) was tested on popular hybrid PMxCSR2 in extensive large scale field trials conducted in different areas of Karnataka & Andhra Pradesh in different seasons. The result indicated extension of the larval duration in the range of 18-24 hrs, cocoon yield improvement of upto 12-16% and 8-10% higher returns in price compared to control cocoons. The SeriMore treated batches also showed significant improvement in number of cocoons/kg compared to the control group.
