Isolation and Characterization of Cultivable Microbes from the Gut of <i>Zophobas atratus</i> (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) Larvae Reared on Two Types of Artificial Diets

Isolation and Characterization of Cultivable Microbes from the Gut of <i>Zophobas atratus</i> (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) Larvae Reared on Two Types of Artificial Diets

Gut microbes are important for saproxylophagous insects, but little is known about the specific types of microbes that we can grow in the lab and how their diet affects them. We characterized aerobic culturable microbes from the superworm <i>Zophobas atratus</i> larvae reared on a standa...
