The Effect of Secondary Metabolites Produced by Serratia marcescens on Aedes aegypti and Its Microbiota

Serratia marcescens is a bacterial species widely found in the environment, which very efficiently colonizes mosquitoes. In this study, we isolated a red-pigmented S. marcescens strain from our mosquito colony (called S. marcescens VA). This red pigmentation is caused by the production of prodigiosi...
