“…For this reason, several papers describing nutritional aspects, breeding facilities, and microbial dynamics during the industrial production cycle [64][65][66][67][68][69] are present in the literature. Although A. diaperinus belongs to the species with the greatest potential to be used as food and feed in the EU [10], it could serve as a reservoir and vector for a plethora of pathogenic microorganisms, as bacteria, fungi, coccidia, worms, and tapeworms, and of viruses that cause serious diseases [51,70,71]. It is a mechanical vector of avian viruses belonging to different genuses: Marek's disease, avian leucosis virus, fowl pox virus (FWPV), infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV), turkey coronavirus (TCV), Newcastle disease viruses, infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV), and reovirus 24 [70,[72][73][74][75][76][77][78][79].…”
