Fig. 8From: Serratia marcescens in the intestine of housefly larvae inhibits host growth by interfering with gut microbiotaAntagonism experiment of S. marcescens and K. pneumoniae, E. hormaechei, E. cloacae, A. bereziniae, and L. fusiformis in the housefly larval intestine. A Serratia marcescens was seeded on the right side of the plate, while the opposite side was set as the control. A filter paper was dipped into E. hormaechei, K. pneumoniae, E. cloacae, L. fusiformis, and A. bereziniae cultures. B Competitive inhibition between S. marcescens and K. pneumoniae, E. hormaechei, E. cloacae, A. bereziniae, and L. fusiformis in the housefly larval intestine. Data are shown as the mean ± SEM. The t-test was used for statistical analysisBack to article page
