The bacterial diversity (Shannon, Simpson index, Evenness and Brillouin) and OTUs richness (Fisher_alpha, Berger-Parker and Chao1) were estimated at 97% sequence similarity from each BPH sample. The female adult BPH (BPH-F6-TN1 and BPH-F16-IR36) samples revealed highest alpha-diversity among the BPH samples. BPH-F0, F0 generation female adult BPH; BPH-F6-TN1, F6 generation female adult BPH isolated from susceptible, TN1, host; BHP-F16-TN1, F16 generation female adult BPH isolated from TN1; BPH-F6-IR36, F6 generation female adult BPH isolated from resistant, IR36, host; BPH-F16-IR36, F16 generation female adult BPH isolated from IR36; BPH-F6-RH, F6 generation female adult BPH isolated from resistant, RH, host; and BPH-F16-RH, F16 generation female adult BPH from RH
