Embodiment

[0083]The present invention can be explained in detail with reference to the following examples; however, it is not limited thereto.

[0084] In order to inhibit the growth of the virus, a gene derived from the virus is used to recombinantly produce a gene that can produce mRNA with a hairpin structure. The structures of the produced genes and vectors are shown in figure 1 middle.

[0085] The lef1 gene is a gene related to the DNA replication of NPV in silkworm, and also a gene necessary for virus propagation. The gene was ligated, wherein the direction of transcription of the gene was reversed, and SK18, which exhibited strong activity in cultured cells, was used as its promoter. Moreover, the A3GFP gene can be used as a marker gene to distinguish transgenic silkworms carrying the gene. A3GFP can express fluorescent protein in the whole silkworm body, and individuals carrying the gene can be easily distinguished under a fluorescent stereoscopic microscope.

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a transgenic silkworm exhibiting a resistance against nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) and a method for producing the same.

SOLUTION: This transgenic silkworm holding a DNA encoding an RNA molecule having an RNAi effect against a gene indispensable for the proliferation of the NPV, as capable of expressing is formed. As a result of the examination of the proliferation of the NPV in the transgenic silkworm, it is elucidated that the proliferation of the virus can be inhibited.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a transgenic silkworm resistant to nuclear polyhedrosis virus. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a method for producing transgenic silkworms resistant to nuclear polyhedrosis virus. Background technique [0002] In sericulture factories, silkworms are severely damaged by nuclear polyhedrosis virus (NPV). So far, many researchers have carried out the research work of producing anti-NPV silkworms, but none of them has been successful so far. This is due to the fact that the existing silkworms in the world lack the anti-NPV gene. In order to prevent the invasion of this virus, thorough disinfection of silkworm egg hatching areas and related equipment is encouraged. However, such an approach in a sericulture farm is not only troublesome, but also causes huge consumption of manpower and material resources, and cocooning is expensive, and has become one of the factors that complicate the farm. [0003] NPVs are large ...
