Figure Lengend Snippet: FIGURE 4 | Survival profiles of in vitro reared larvae inoculated with Paenibacillus melissococcoides 3.2 and of non-inoculated control larvae. (A) Dose dependence: One-day-old larvae inoculated on the first day of rearing with different doses of P. melissococcoides (in CFUs) and controls. (B) Age dependence: One-, three- and five-day-old larvae inoculated with 2 × 105 P. melissococcoides bacteria (arrows), respectively, and controls. The sample size is indicated in the legend. Different letters to the right of the curves indicate significant differences in the survival of the tested dose and age groups (pairwise log-rank tests, Bonferroni-Holm corrected, p < 0.05).
Article Snippet: Three P. melissococcoides isolates, 1.2, 2.1 and 3.2 (Ory et al. 2023), and two closely related Paenibacillus species, P. dendritiformis LMG 21716 (type strain, provided by BCCM LMG) and P. thiaminolyticus DSM 7262 (type strain, provided by DSMZ GmbH) were cultivated on basal medium Petri dishes for four days at 36°C under oxic conditions as recommended in Ory et al. (2023).
