These data were collected by Melissa Stanukinas at Morton College in Fall 2023. Beetles were reared on organically grown Blackeye peas (N=7) or traditionally grown Blackeye peas (N=5). Data set does not include a negative control. Beetles were from the LB strain adapted to their host beans for many generations. Beetles were adult both males and females, or not recorded. 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.
