From: The insect pathogenic bacterium Xenorhabdus innexi has attenuated virulence in multiple insect model hosts yet encodes a potent mosquitocidal toxin

Fig. 2

X. innexi is attenuated for virulence in three insect model hosts. Galleria mellonella (a, b, g), Drosophila melanogaster (c-f), or Manduca sexta (h) insects were injected with X. nematophila (a-d, h) or X. innexi (e-g, h) laboratory-grown bacterial cells at the level indicated in the symbol legend, or with controls as indicated. Over time after injection the insects were monitored for survival (a, c, e, g, and h) to assess bacterial virulence, or were destructively sampled for bacterial cell number (b, d, and f)
