Microbiota composition of <i>Drosophila</i> and their environments in Utah, USA, orchards
We present a marker gene analysis of the microbiota of <i>Drosophila</i> and their fruit and soil environments, collected across a latitudinal gradient in Utah, USA. Collections varied according to fly species, sex, and starvation condition, providing a snapshot of the covariation of these variables with microbiota composition in the wild.
