LEfSe analysis (A) to identify and characterize bacterial communities from phylum to genus level associated with developmental stages of the litchi stink bug, T. javanica. Red nodes indicate no significant difference. The nodes with different colours denote that the bacterial community significantly increased at different developmental stages. LDA (Linear discriminate analysis) (B) score was greater than 2 in most bacterial taxa and indicated family-level diversity in bacterial communities across developmental stages of T. javanica.
