The gut commensal bacterium Enterococcus faecalis LX10 contributes to defending against Nosema bombycis infection in Bombyx mori. [PDF]
Pest Manag Sci, 2022 According to the microsporidia–Bombyx mori model, we revealed that Enterococcus with anti‐Nosema bombycis activity might play an important role in protecting silkworms from microsporidia. The present study provides a clear profile of the complex interplay among microsporidia, silkworms, and gut microbiome.
