title: Expression of the Bombyx mori beta-tubulin-encoding gene in testis.
abstract: We have isolated a beta-tubulin-encoding cDNA clone of Bombyx mori from testes and determined the nucleotide sequence. Northern analyses showed that its expression is testis-specific and most active in the pupal stage.
