The experiment showed that most hybrid stock female moths of Liangguang No. 2 at 25 -28℃ oviposited in the first 5 hours, and egg production declined sharply after 5 hours. 7 · Xiang × Fu · 9 achieved the oviposition peak within 1 hour after casting the moth, the oviposition amount within 5 horns accounted for 92.94% of the total oviposition amount of female moth, that within 9 hours accounted for 96.47%. Fu · 9 × 7 · Xiang achieved the oviposition peak within 2 -4 hours after casting the moth, the oviposition amount within 5 hours accounted for 85.21% of the total oviposition amount of female moth, that within 9 hours accounted for 92.78%. Oviposition regularity of the hybrid silkworm stock moth of Liangguang No. 2 meets the need of dry-hot air treatment of silkworm pebrine-control egg age within 12 hours.展开更多
