Diet influences the bacterial and free fatty acid profiles of the cuticle of Galleria mellonella larvae.
The evolutionary success of insects is arguably due to their ability to build up a complex, highly-adaptable and very effective defense system against numerous pathogens, including entomopathogenic fungi. This system relies on the humoral immune system and cellular defense reactions. The first line...
