Original Sequencing Data for Gut Microbiome Diversity and Functional Prediction in Two Earwig Species (Natural Enemies of Agricultural Pests)
In this study, we characterized the gut bacterial community composition of two earwig species, <i>Timomenus komarovi</i> and <i>Eudohrnia metallica</i>, which were collected from distinct agricultural habitats (mulberry fields and maize fields) in Guizhou Province, China. The V3-V4 hypervariable region of the 16S rRNA gene was sequenced using the PacBio Sequel IIe platform. This dataset provides the original raw sequencing data for investigating the gut microbiome diversity and functional potential of these predatory earwigs, which serve as natural enemies of agricultural pests.
