N1 - Funding Information:
The 448 silkworm strains used in this study were supplied by the silkworm stock center of Kyushu University supported by the National BioResource Project (NBRP). The detailed phenotype of these silkworm strains is described in NBRP Silkworm (http://www.shigen.nig.ac.jp/silkwormbase/index. jsp). The silkworms were reared routinely with mulberry leaves in well-prepared silkworm-rearing rooms under controlled environmental conditions at 25–27 °C.

N2 - Baculovirus demonstrates specific infection spectrums and thus one certain host exhibits particular response to single baculovirus isolate. Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) is considered to be not an innate pathogen to Bombyx mori, but some silkworm strains have been identified to be permissive to AcMNPV, indicating the positive or negative involvement of certain host factors in baculovirus replications in vivo. To provide a fundamental knowledge of this process, we performed large-scale screening to investigate the responses of 448 silkworm strains against recombinant AcMNPV inoculation. By genetic analysis between permissive and resistant strains identified, we further confirmed that a potential corresponding locus on chromosome 3 regulates host responses to AcMNPV in silkworm. Additionally, we found that it is available for AcMNPV-silkworm baculovirus expression vector system to produce proteins of interest.
