Latest Announcements [Modification history]
  • Our paper (Nichi01 strain genome assembly) is published (Waizumi et al., 2023). (2023.02.23)
  • Updated the genome assembly of Nichi01 strain with 1 bp fix (chr24:4,761,555 N -> A) due to a previous mistake in manual gap-closing. This change does not affect predicted gene models (the fixed site is located in inter-gene region). The updated genome assembly is now available in the genome browser (Genome Browser), BLAST search form, and downlodable FASTA file (Download page). The genome assembly deposited in DDBJ AP026182-AP026366 does not contain this error. (2023.01.16)
  • New genome assembly and new predicted gene models of Nichi01 strain are now available at BLAST search form and Genome Browser. (2022.11.02)
  • New genome assembly and new predicted gene models of another Bombyx mori strain (Nichi01 strain) are now available at Download page. (2022.03.12)
  • Our paper (reference transcriptome data) is published (Yokoi et al., 2021). (2021.06.03)
  • Our paper (the latest update on KAIKObase) is published (Yang et al., 2021). (2021.02.27)

KAIKObase is a silkworm genome database since 2009. We provide four data mining approaches:
  1. Search from linkage and physical map in Chromosome Overview
  2. Keyword and Position Search
  3. BLAST Search against silkworm genome and gene sets
  4. List of manually curated genes (Curated Genes)
Linkage map and physical map can be accessed by clicking the chromosome number.
It containing genome contigs, BAC-ends, SNP makers, and Fingerprint Contigs (FPC).
