Culturable Bacterial Communities Related to Different Larval Stages of Sanys irrosea (Guenee, 1852) (Lepidoptera: Noctuoidae) by Elif Sevim, Ali Sevim

“…In this study, we purposed to isolate and identify the culturable bacterial species in internal organs (mostly gut parts) of Sanys irrosea (Guenee, 1852) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) which was selected as model organism. The bacterial flora of different development stages of S. irrosea was studied by culture dependent techniques and the isolated bacteria was identified by 16S rRNA sequencing and phylogenetic analysis. …”
