Genomic DNA sequences from field collected Helicoverpa zea
The H. zea individual was collected as larvae from wild host plants near O'Reilly Road (33°40'02.9"N 90°43'58.4"W) in Bolivar County, Mississippi.  DNA was prepared from their thoraces when they emerged as adults and used for constructing sequencing libraries using Illumina Nextera library construction kit. Genomic DNA libraries were size fractionated on a Pippin Prep instrument (Sage Science Inc., Beverly, MA, USA) to obtain 550±20 bp fragments (inset size 400-450 bp) and quantified using KAPA library quantification kit (KAPA Biosystems, Wilmington, MA, USA). Equimolar pool of the four libraries was sequenced on an Illumina Hiseq2500 instrument at the USDA-ARS Genomics and Bioinformatics Research Unit, Stoneville, MS, USA.
