Impact of gut microbiota composition on black cutworm, Agrotis ipsilon (hufnagel) metabolic indices and pesticide degradation

Table 6 One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with three treatment groups: gnotobiotic fed antibiotics (GFA), bacterial fed (BF) (Glutamicibacter sp., B. conglomeratum, or in consortium) and conventional fed (CF) as control (GFA, BF, and CF). Means with the same letter within each factor and character are not significantly different (P > 0.05)
