From cocoon to Silk

=================

=>In order to produce silk, the silkworm developing inside the cocoon (as pupa) is not allowed to mature into an adult silk moth. As soon as the cocoon is formed it is used to obtain silk

fibres and the developing silkworm (as pupa) gets killed. This is because if the silkworm (as pupa) is allowed to mature into a silk moth, then the fully formed silk moth secretes a liquid to dissolve a part of silk of the cocoon to break it so as to come out of it and fly away. This breaking of cocoon causes damage to its silk threads and hence lowers the quality of silk. The cocoons having developing silkworms inside them are used to obtain silk. Some of the silkworms (as pupae) are allowed to live and mature into silk moths so that they can lay eggs to produce more silkworms.

Mulberry is called shehtoot.
