Excerpts from the Jan 26 PR:

“Ann Arbor, MI – January 26, 2023– KBLB … announces that it has delivered the first two hybrid-cross Dragon SilkTM strains to its third-party production partner in Vietnam. These strains were developed to address the most significant immediate hurdle to large-scale production, the robustness of our silkworms within the large-scale production environment.
…
“Best practices employed by the most advanced silkworm egg production facilities include utilizing a multi-line cross-mating protocol to generate increased robustness. The result of first-generation cross-matings yield larger cocoons and more resilient silkworm offspring. As these increased performance attributes only last one generation, it is vital that central silkworm egg production operations sustain each of these separate lines in order to create successive generations of hybrid crosses.

Kraig Labs begins its transition to multi-line cross-mating with these two new hybrids. Once established at the production facilities, the Company will start cross-matings to produce our first two-line production hybrids. Kraig Labs believes this will strengthen its production operations, increase silkworm resiliency, and significantly improve environmental tolerance.”

According to KBLB, the parent lines for the hybrid strain were delivered to GSS. I don’t see how this could be read differently. I thought Prodigy would raise the parent lines and produce hybrid eggs for GSS, but that does not appear to be the case. What’s going on at Prodigy? Don’t know.
