Effects of the E. hormaechei and P. stuartii on the growth and development of housefly larvae. Housefly larvae were fed with sterile water (Wa), Lb-cultured P. stuartii (Ps), sterilized Lb-cultured E. hormaechei (wEh), co-fed with Lb-cultured E. hormaechei and Lb-cultured P. stuartii (Eh + Ps), sterilized Lb-cultured E. hormaechei and P. stuartii (wEh + Ps), Lb-cultured E. hormaechei and sterilized Lb-cultured P. stuartii (Eh + wPs) and sterilized Lb-cultured E. hormaechei and sterilized Lb-cultured P. stuartii (wEh + wPs). Repeated measures ANOVA followed by Sidak correction was used for multiple comparisons. Asterisks indicate significant differences at *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001
