vulgaris (Navy beans) were purchased from the local grocery store. A handle full of beans were sifted through to remove any beans that were damaged or halved. The beans were then filtered by size to remove beans smaller or larger than 1.5 cm. Removing the abnormal beans lessened the possibilities of variation in plant growth. The remaining beans were soaked in room temperature mineral water for 1 hour to accelerate germination. We soaked over 15 beans with the knowledge that the beans could split again

Callosobruchus maculatus, or bean beetles, had a bean color preference for oviposition choice. Oviposition is the process of a female insect laying her eyes on plant parts and other materials, which can be influenced by many factors. The bean beetle eggs are opaque and clear, which allowed us to test the hypothesis that C. maculatus prefer the darker red Adzuki beans over the white Black-eyed peas for oviposition choice. Two different colored bean types were used, the red Adzuki beans and the white Black-eyed
