Transmission of Serratia marcescens (Enterobacteriaceae) in adult Heliothis virescens (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) laboratory colonies

1998-05-01

Abstract excerpt

The red strain of Serratia marcescens (Bizio) has been isolated from healthy, diseased, or dead field-collected insects, but it is most frequently reported as a pathogen of insectary-reared insects. In this study, we determined the path of transmission of S. marcescens in adult Heliothis virescens (F.) to the next generation and compared longevity of infected and uninfected adults. Our results show that S. marcesc...
