1 Selective breeding involves choosing parents with particular characteristics to breed together and produce offspring with more desirable characteristics. Humans have selectively bred plants and animals for thousands of years including: crop plants with better yields.

2 Sheep and lamb feeds provide animals with the protein, carbohydrates, fiber, vitamins, and minerals they need. When a sheep eats forage, it means the animal grazes on grass in a pasture or field or eats some kind of preserved forage such as hay, silage, or haylage.

3 Other than sheep, wool can be obtained from the animals like camels, goats and rabbits. The Alpaca, a camel breed, gives fibres which are light weight, soft and shiny in nature. The Cashmere goat gives soft and warm fibre which is called Cashmere fibre.

4 No wonder women are playing a very important role in the sericulture industry. Their qualities like maternal instincts and loving care of those under their charge prove to be very helpful in the successful breeding of silk worms.

5 Sorter's Disease is another name for Anthrax. It is caused by the bacteria Bacillus anthracis. Historically, anthrax was called wool sorter's disease because individuals who sorted wool of infected animals contracted the disease.

6 According to Chinese legend, silk was discovered in 2640 BC by the third wife of China's third Emperor. While she was having tea underneath a mulberry tree in the garden, a small cocoon fell from the tree into her cup of hot tea. She was surprised to see the cocoon start to unravel, revealing a long delicate thread.

7 Silk moth shows complete metamorphosis that consists of four stages.

  • It begins with the insect hatching from an egg into a soft worm-like larva.
  • Larvae have a very big appetite and they feed on mulberry leaves.
  • They can eat several times their own body weight to store food.
  • At the end of the larval stage, the insect makes a hard shell called cocoon, inside which it becomes a pupa.
  • The pupa does not eat or move in this stage.
  • Silk is obtained from the cocoon.
  • Inside the cocoon, the pupa changes into an adult silk moth.
  • This adult silk moth can now live independently.
