RESUMO

In insects, diet plays an important role in growth and development. Insects can vary their diet composition based on their physiological needs. In this study we tested the influence of diet composition involving varying concentrations of macronutrients and zinc on the immune-tolerance following parasite and pathogen exposure in Spodoptera litura larvae. We also tested the insecticidal potential of Mesorhabditis belari, Enterobacter hormaechei and its secondary metabolites on Spodoptera litura larvae. The results shows macronutrient composition does not directly affect the larval tolerance to nematode infection. However, Zinc supplemented diet improved the immune tolerance. While larvae exposed to bacterial infection performed better on carbohydrate rich diet. Secondary metabolites from bacteria produced an immune response in dose dependent mortality. The study shows that the larvae maintained on different diet composition show varied immune tolerance which is based on the type of infection.
