FIGURE 5

Differential virulence of two X. hominickii strains (‘ANU1’ and ‘DY1’) against two lepidopteran species (S. exigua and M. vitrata at L5 larval stage) and a coleopteran species (T. molitor at larval stage with 3-cm body length). Overnight cultured bacteria were injected into hemocoels of surface-sterilized larvae using microsyringes. Each treatment was replicated three times. Each replication used 10 larvae. Asterisks above standard error bars indicates significant differences between means of two strains for each dose at Type I error = 0.05 (LSD test).
