Whole metagenome sequencing reveals host plant influences microbial community associated with larvae ofAnastrepha obliqua

“…In addition, the descriptions available to date cover diversity at the species level, but not at the genomic level. To address the communities of microorganisms with a more complete approach, the larvae, i.e., the stage of the life cycle where individuals actively feed on fruits, need to be considered (Perez-Staples et al, 2019). In our study, the microbiota and microbiomes of A. obliqua larvae feeding on Spondias purpurea L. (red mombin), Mangifera indica L. (mango) (both Anacardiaceae), and Averrhoa carambola L. (star fruit) (Oxalidaceae) were compared using WMS.…”
