ALA-PDT prolongs the survival of G. mellonella infected with F. monophora.a The selected G. mellonella before infection (left). After 5 days, larvae became melanization over the infection with F. monophora (1 × 106 cells per larva) (right). Representative larvae were picked into Petri dishes and photographed. b The survival curve of larvae. G. mellonella larvae were injected with F. monophora (1 × 106 cells per larva) or PBS as the control. n = 15. Treatments were performed 2 h after the infection. ALA-PDT, ALA-mediated PDT treatment. Light, procedure control. ALA, reagent control. The experiment was repeated thrice on different days. The representative results were displayed. **, p < 0.01; *** p < 0.0001
