Abstract |
The present paper outlines the establishment of four additional cloned
cell lines derived from embryo tissues of Bombyx mori, which were
designated as SES-BoMo-J125K1, SES-BoMoJ125K2, SES-BoMo-J125K5, and
SES-BoMo-J125K6. These cell lines were characterized by their suspension-type,
karyology, isozyme pattern, and amino acid consumption pattern. Among
these cell lines, the SES-BoMo-J125K2 cell line was susceptible to Bombyx
mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus, and could be cultured in the serum-free
medium (MM-SF). This cell line could be used for the production of useful
proteins or to control pests using baculoviruses.
