Microbial communities associated with the larval gut and eggs of the Western corn rootworm.
BACKGROUND: The western corn rootworm (WCR) is one of the economically most important pests of maize. A better understanding of microbial communities associated with guts and eggs of the WCR is required in order to develop new pest control strategies, and to assess the potential role of the WCR in t...
