Which manufacturing outcome increased sharply during Byzantine controlled silk production when sericulture adapted to include hybrid silkworm breeding?

💡 Explanation

Hybrid silkworm breeding increased pupae mass, greatly raising raw silk yield because heterosis caused faster larval growth and larger silk glands; therefore the silk production quantity increased, rather than intrinsic silk tensile strength.
