These data were collected by Dr. Regina McGrane and students at the University of Iowa in Spring 2024. Beetles were reared on either black-eyed peas (N=12) or adzuki beans (N=12). A negative control is also included. Beetles were a mix of males and females. Beetles were almost certainly mated. Beetles were adults. Beetles were from the LB strain. Beetles were surface-sterilized. Beetles were extracted with QIAGEN DNA-Easy kits. Sequences are for the v4 region. MiSeq sequencing was done by MrDNA labs. For more information, contact Gina McGrane
