Lamerin breed of the silkworm Bombyx mori L. is the only mulberry silkworm breed which survives with an associated microsporidian (Lb∧ms) infection from generations. This present comparative investigation has produced information on the influence of Lb∧ms on the growth and development of the breed. The Lb∧ms transmits tranovarially as well as perorally at low level. Larvae developed from the eggs laid by female, infected with Lb∧ms were as normal as larvae developed from the eggs laid by healthy female.
