Construction of a full-length cDNA Library from Chinese oak silkworm pupa and identification of a KK-42-binding protein gene in relation to pupa-diapause termination

<p>In this study we successfully constructed a full-length cDNA library from Chinese oak silkworm, <i>Antheraea pernyi</i>, the most well-known wild silkworm used for silk production and insect food. Total RNA was extracted from a single fresh female pupa at the diapause stage. The...
