Dietary inclusion of black soldier fly larvae as a partial protein source: effects on growth performance, carcass traits and meat quality of broilers
showed opposite correlated trends to these indicators.5. In conclusion, dietary inclusion of BSF can regulate gut microbial composition and the expression of genes related to muscle development, thereby improving meat production, but affecting meat quality. Additionally, BSF alter the fatty acid profile of breast meat.
