Production of viable eggs in the Eri silkworm, Philosamiaricini is influenced by the mating activity.The effect of coupling duration on the fecundity of Eri silkworm, Philosamiaricini during different seasons was studied. Fecundity rate inEri silkworm, PhilosamiaRicinidoes notsignificant variation with increase in mating duration were observed different season.

Abstract Some neurotropic enteroviruses hijack Trojan horse/raft commensal gut bacteria to render devastating biomimicking cryptic attacks on human/animal hosts. Such virus-microbe interactions manipulate hosts’ gut-brain axes with accompanying infection-cycle-optimizing central nervous system (CNS) disturbances, including severe neurodevelopmental, neuromotor, and neuropsychiatric conditions. Co-opted bacteria thus indirectly influence host health, development, behavior, and mind as possible “fair-weather-friend” symbionts, switching from commensal to context-dependent pathogen-like strategies benefiting gut-bacteria fitness.
