In recent years, interest in the larvae of black soldier fly (BSF)(Hermetia illucens) as a
sustainable protein resource for livestock feed has increased considerably. However …

The aim of this review is to present and discuss the most recent literature about the
processing of insect biomass and its impact on nutritive value, further implementation of …

This study examined the impact of diet protein and carbohydrate percentages as well as
moisture on the immature development, survivorship, and resulting adult longevity and egg …

Performance and body composition of insect larvae depend on quality and quantity of their
diet, and on biotic factors such as larval density. We investigated the effect of dietary nutrient …

We investigate how the black soldier fly Hermetia illucens L.(Diptera: Stratiomyidae)
responds to dietary protein (P) and carbohydrate (C) contents and the P: C ratio in terms of …

Protein and carbohydrates are important nutrients driving the growth of herbivores; however,
their content in plants is highly variable. Multiple studies have explored their effect on …

Highlights•Temperature and nutrition interact to affect key life history traits: size at maturity,
development rate, reproduction and survival.•Rates of development vary considerably …

Summary The Asian corn borer (Ostrinia furnacalis Guenée) is a destructive pest of maize
(Zea mays L.). Despite large‐scale commercial maize production, little is known about the …

Protein (P) and carbohydrate (C) concentrations present in food affect larval performance,
larval body nutrient concentration, and fecundity of the black soldier fly (BSF). We …

Beneficial root-associated microbes modify the physiological status of their host plants and
affect direct and indirect plant defense against insect herbivores. While the effects of these …
