Mechanism of the growth and development of the posterior silk gland and silk secretion revealed by mutation of the fibroin light chain in silkworm

Silkworm, as a model organism, has very high economic value due to its silk secretion ability. Although a large number of studies have attempted to elucidate the mechanism of silk secretion, it remains unclear. In this study, the fibroin light chain (Fib-L) gene of silkworm was subjected to CRISPR/C...
