Genotype-by-Diet Interactions for Larval Performance and Body Composition Traits in the Black Soldier Fly, <i>Hermetia illucens</i>

Genotype-by-Diet Interactions for Larval Performance and Body Composition Traits in the Black Soldier Fly, <i>Hermetia illucens</i>

Further advancing black soldier fly (BSF) farming for waste valorisation and more sustainable global protein supplies critically depends on targeted exploitation of genotype-phenotype associations in this insect, comparable to conventional livestock. This study used a fully crossed factorial design...
