Abstract

This article highlights the results of testing new complex and simple industrial hybrids of silkworms, focusing on their improved productive and technological properties in comparison with foreign analogues. Various reproductive, biological, productive, and technological indicators were used to evaluate the performance of these hybrids. The research demonstrated that local complex and simple hybrids outperformed the control variants in terms of these indicators, indicating their high performance and potential for silk production. These findings suggest that the local silkworm hybrids have significant advantages over foreign analogues, particularly in terms of cocoon quality and quantity. Based on the positive results obtained from the testing, the article proposes increasing the volume of preparation of local silkworm hybrids for the production of industrial cocoons. This recommendation is supported by the superior performance of these hybrids in comparison with foreign analogues, indicating their suitability for large-scale silk production. This study provides valuable insights into the potential of local silkworm hybrids for improving silk production in Uzbekistan. By utilizing these hybrids, the silk industry in the country could enhance its productivity and competitiveness in the global market, while also promoting the development of local sericulture.
