An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Carlo Jucci (28 June 1897 in Rieti – 22 October 1962 in Rome) was a biologist and geneticist. An important contribution by Jucci were his studies on the silkworm, whose metabolism he investigated comparing larval growth among several races of the moth, thus opening a new chapter in the comparative physiology. Jucci was also interested in biochemical genetics and he directed his attention especially to the silkworm cocoon color. His studies concerning the migration of leaf pigments and differential permeability of the intestine, and silkworm salivary gland function on carotenoids and flavones were the first example of biochemical genetics in the animal world.
