Diagnostics & Quality
Molecular Diagnostics & Quality Assurance
- DNA barcoding protocols for authentic identification of silkworm and mulberry germplasm.
- Genetic purity testing systems to ensure the integrity of commercial hybrid seed.
- Lateral Flow Assay (LFA) kits for rapid, field-level detection of pebrine and Cytoplasmic Polyhedrosis Virus (CPV) infections.
Genetic Resources
Disease-Resistant Genetic Resources
- Silkworm hybrids conferring tolerance to BmNPV (Bombyx mori Nucleopolyhedrovirus).
- Introgression of Densonucleosis Virus (DNV) resistance into commercial hybrid lines.
Biocontrol
Eco-Friendly Pest Management
- A microbial formulation that dissolves the protective wax coating of mealybugs, enabling effective and sustainable field-level control.
Emerging Area
Biomaterial Research Focus
CSB-ISBR has expanded its research focus to sericulture-based biomaterials, with several technologies currently under development in this emerging domain, aimed at unlocking new value-added applications from silk and allied sericultural resources.
