Beneficial Bacteria in the Intestines of Housefly Larvae Promote Larval Development and Humoral Phenoloxidase Activity, While Harmful Bacteria do the Opposite.

ABSTRACT: The gut microenvironment of houseflies provides unique conditions for microbial colonization. Some gut microorganisms provide benefits for the development of the host by regulating the interaction between the host and intestinal pathogens. Gut microbial alterations can stimulate the host's immune mechanism to resist pathogen invasion and affect the development of insects. In this study, we isolated 10 bacterial strains from housefly larval intestines. The isolated bacteria were added to the larval diet to analyze the effects of microecological regulation of gut bacteria on larval development. Dynamic changes in gut flora composition after oral administration of specific bacteria were analyzed although 16S rRNA gene high-throughput sequencing technology. To explore the interaction between g
