“…However, this was not the case. These results, together with previous findings demonstrating that immune priming could be induced through injection or septic wounding (4,15,46,52), clearly suggest that the oral route of contamination by bacterial pathogens represents a marginal selective pressure for the evolution of immune priming in T. molitor. In contrast, septic wounding appears to have played a more significant role.…”

“…By contrast, food contaminated with S. marcescens, another deadly entomopathogen but Gram(-) bacterium, was consumed as much as control food, as were foods contaminated with S. aureus and E. coli, generalist bacteria inducing almost no virulence in our assays. Previous studies suggested that Gram(+) bacterial pathogens, particularly Bacilli, might have played a specific role in shaping immunity of the mealworm beetle with regard to the evolution of immune priming (15,(44)(45)(46). Our results confirm that these bacteria are recognized as an important threat for the mealworm beetle, which may also have evolved the ability to specifically recognize contaminated food and adjust its feeding behavior accordingly.…”

“…Another important attribute related to immune priming is its species-specific character. Larvae that were exposed two times to the same pathogen ( M. anisopliae ) presented a higher survival rate than larvae that were challenged with this fungus and later exposed to Bacillus thuringiensis and Serratia marcescens [64]. In addition, immune priming has the ability to be transmitted between generations.…”
