Effect of E. faecalis LX10 on physiological function and economic traits after silkworm infection with N. bombycis. Larval masses of the different groups (mean with 95% confidence interval, n = 60 for each group) after 2 d (a), 4 d (b) and 6 d (c). (d) Cocoon length, (e) cocoon width, (f) whole-cocoon weight, (g) cocoon shell weight, (h) pupation rate and (i) adult emergence rate of the healthy silkworm (CK), E. faecalis LX10 (EF, 107 CFU/mL), N. bombycis (NB, 109 spore/mL), and E. faecalis LX10 + N. bombycis (NF) group silkworms
