← HistoryWhich consequence arises when Byzantine sericulture faces disease?
A)Reduction in silk fibre strength
B)Lowered imperial textile production✓
C)Increased silk trade embargoes
D)Reduced dye saturation efficiency
💡 Explanation
Disease in silkworms decreases silk yield; therefore, the empire's fine textile output decreases because lower supply drives artisan resource competition within Constantinople. Rather than impacting silk fiber properties, sericulture reduction constrains material availability.
