FIGURE 3

Larval final weight and growth rate following the bacterial administration. (A) Final weight of 10 larvae, reported in grams, are shown for the different treatments. (B) Growth rate of 10 BSF larvae reared on non-sterile fruit-based diet with or without the selected bacterial strains. The horizontal axis indicates the time (days), while the vertical axis reports the weight of 10 larvae (grams). Control: non-sterile diet without any selected strains; DH5α: larvae fed with the outsider strain of E. coli DH5α pKan(DsRed); HI121: larvae added with S. maltophilia strain HI121; HI169: larvae supplemented with B. licheniformis strain HI169; HI169 + HI121 larvae fed with the two selected strains.
