Because of variation in growth rate and market weights, producers are forced to sort heavily to reduce the cost of weight discounts. The lighter weight end of the distribution curve is the most expensive portion of the variation because it dictates when barns can be emptied and refilled and is the weight range most discounted by the packer.

An analysis of genetic variation and divergence in Indian tropical polyvoltine silkworm (Bombyx mori L.) genotypes

The genetic variation and diversity among fifty-eight polyvoltine silkworm genotypes was estimated by using ten economic traits. The results revealed that the single shell weight showed higher genetic variation such as PCV% (17.20%), GCV% (12.93%), and heritability (56.5%) followed by single cocoon weight, shell ratio and matured larval weight. The D2 (Mahalonobis? distance) statistics reveal...
