G. mellonella health index score monitoring. G. mellonella were monitored post-infection and the activity, melanization and survival features were scored according to their health index. The wax worms were inoculated with buffer (10 ÎĽM MgSO4), S. Typhimurium ATCC12023, non-pathogenic corynebacteria C. glutamicum ATCC 13032 (⊗), C. diphtheriae strain CDC-E8392 (â–˛), CAM-1 (â—Ź), CAM-1 pXMJ19 (o) (a), and the DIP0733 truncation mutants CAM-1 pXMJ19_Cg0896 (⊙), CAM-1 pXMJ19_Cg0896 + cc (â—‘) and CAM-1 pXMJ19_DIP0733-cc (â—’) (b). Error bars represent mean ± SEM and 2-way ANOVA column statistics shows **** p < 0.0001
