Because the jasmine-scented chemical emitted by mulberry leaves is toxic to most other insects, silkworms face less competition for food. The reason for attraction of silkworms to this chemical is still under investigation by scientists.
Silkworms are the larvae of any number of species of moths, collectively called Silk Moths. The species used for nearly all commercial silk is Bombyx mori. and they are highly "host specific" meaning the organism (the symbiont) depends upon one particular species of plants, animal, or insect for its host, and they will only eat Mullberry leaves.
