The study was conducted to evaluate combining ability for growth, quality and yield parameters in mulberry at the field germplasm existed at the Department of Sericulture, UAS, GKVK, Bangalore. Twenty one F1 hybrids was developed by crossing seven lines with three testers according to line x tester design. and assessed using randomized complete block design with three replications. Results revealed that analysis of general combining ability showed the higher magnitude of specific combining ability (SCA) variance than general combining ability (GCA) variance for most of the characters, which indicates the presence of non- additive gene action for most of the traits except for number of branches per plant, number of leaves per plant, and single leaf area. Among seven lines, M. cathyana, MI-47, M. laevigata, MI-494 were found to be best general combiners and in testers V1, MI-66 were found best general combiners with high GCA effects. Among twenty one crosses, BC-259 × MI-66, M. indica × MI-66, M. laevigata × V1 and M. indica × C-776 were found to be superior performers with high SCA effects.

“…It is assessed that mulberry silk contributes around 90% of the total worldwide raw silk production, helping significantly to the occupations of various peoples over the globe (Ghosh et al 2017). The leaf of the mulberry is one of the major food for silkworm and the achievement and profitability of silk, quality mulberry leaf upgrades the efficiency of cocoon and quality of silk (Ashiru 2002, Doss et al 2012, Rahman and Islam 2020b. About 68 species Morus have been extensively identified (Datta 2000), of which M. alba, M. latifolia, M. mutlicaulis are grown for leaves for production of silk (Vijayan et al 2011).…”

“…Mulberry is broadly perceived for its socio-economic significance. Leaves of mulberry plant are broadly utilized for the primary and only food of silkworm (Bombyx mori L.) for the production of silk yarn (Rahman and Islam 2020b). Mainly, the protein contained in the mulberry leaf is converted into the silk protein (fibroin and sericin) by the silkworm.…”

Mulberry is a very hard and quickly developing plant belongs to the family of Moraceae. The leaf of mulberry is exclusively utilized for feeding and rising of the silkworm (Bombyx mori) for the production of silk yarn. It is evaluated that mulberry silk contributes around 90% of the total worldwide raw silk production that contributed to socio-economic development worldwide. The usage of mulberry leaves as silkworm feed, it is being utilized for food and medicinal purpose also. For instance, the mulberry fruit because of its high nutritive value and flavorful taste is getting significance as important foodstuff. The mulberry bark and wood are likewise helpful for assembling of paper and sports products things. Mulberry is a quickly developing with profound roots, flourish leaves, high protections from pollution, wind, sand, drought, and salinity with strong adaptability and simple cultivation. The broad environmental adaptability of mulberry to light, temperature, water, soil and other normal conditions objectively empowers it to have numerous environmental defensive capacities in water and soil protection, wind tolerance and sand consolidation, water source preservation, and air refreshment. Since earlier, Ayurveda and other literature have claimed the diverse medicinal properties against certain serious diseases e.g. hypertension, hyperglycemia, cancer, arthritis, diabetes and rheumatis, heart disease, inflammation, fever, cough and throat, stomach related disease, unsteadiness, hepatitis etc. The current studies of different pharmacological compounds of medicinal significance present in mulberry plants opens up new avenues of research in the medical science. Under this study briefly described about economic as well as environmental importance of mulberry taking into account different aspects of its role as animal feed, foodstuff, phytomedicine and remediation of polluted soils and atmosphere, etc. J.

“…The diversity of Moraceae has been studied in terms of genetic diversity (Elhawary et al, 2018;Marcotuli et al, 2019;Martins et al, 2021), species diversity (Gardner et al, 2017;Machado et al, 2018;Shi et al, 2018;Pederneiras et al, 2020), and ecosystem diversity (Kong et al, 2020;Dong et al, 2022;Wang et al, 2022). Most studies on diversity in the Moraceae have been conducted for limited species of the genus Morus (Chen et al, 2016;Islam and Rahman, 2019;Hashemi and Khadivi, 2020) and Ficus species (Teixeira et al, 2018;Zhang et al, 2018;Chakraborty et al, 2022). On the contrary, in this work, all genera in the Chinese Moraceae were applied to investigate species diversity.…”

Changes in distribution patterns of economically essential forest species under global change are urgently needed in the scientific forecast, and large-scale spatial modeling is a crucial tool. Using diversity pattern indicators and other data obtained through geographic information systems (GIS) and spatial data on Moraceae species obtained from published data, we quantitatively studied the spatial diversity patterns of genera in the Moraceae in China. The results revealed that the patch richness, diversity index, and total shape index of the genera with multiple species were significantly higher than those of the monotypic genera. Monotypic genera had no spatial diversity and no distribution in patterns of spatial diversity. Maclura had the most concentrated spatial distribution and the lowest distribution area among the Moraceae in China. The number of patches and the total area were the smallest, while the most significant patch index was the highest. Maclura had no spatial diversity. Streblus had the highest patch abundance compared to other genera with fewer species. Streblus had the smallest number of patches and total area of distribution, the lowest spatial distribution, and a small total shape index, indicating its concentrated distribution. The values of the Shannon’s Diversity Index (SHDI) and Simpson’s Diversity Index (SIDI) were the highest, and the spatial distribution was the most diverse among the genera with fewer species. The patch type of Streblus had a more considerable value than other genera, but the number of patches was small, and the total shape index was low. Streblus was primarily distributed in the south of Yunnan, western Guangxi, the west and central parts of Hainan, and southern Guangdong. Most of these areas were mountainous. The temperature decreased with elevation, providing diverse environmental conditions for the narrow-stem genus. Among the Moraceae in China, the spatial distribution of Ficus was the most diverse, with the highest number of patches, patch types, total shape index, SHDI, and SIDI values. The spatial diversity of Ficus could be used as a protected area for Moraceae in China.
