Themo(hereditary mosaic) mutation is one of the most famous and interesting mutations of the silkworm,Bombyx mori. Females homozygous formogenerate mosaic and gynandromorphic offspring due to non-elimination of polar bodies and subsequent double fertilization events, irrespective of the genotype of the mated males. Althoughmowas first reported in 1927, the locus has not been mapped to linkage groups, as the mutation is unstable and appears to be sensitive to genetic background. In this study, linkage analysis ofmowas performed using PCR-based markers on single nucleotide polymorphism linkage maps.Bombyx mandarinawas used as the mating partner for theB. morimostrain, as it is easier to identify polymorphic markers betweenB. moriandB. mandarinathan withinB. moristrains. Surprisingly, we identified two homozygous linkage groups (LGs) in all of the 12 B1(first backcross generation) moths that had deposited mosaic eggs. It was revealed that +mois located on the M chromosome ofB. mandarina,which corresponds to two linkage groups ofB. mori,LG 14 and 27. Based on further linkage analysis usingB. morias a mating partner,mowas mapped to LG 14. Additionally, we found thatmoactivity could be modified by a gene(s) on LG 17.
