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 revealed...
