The Jumping Bean Beetles! The Jumping bean beetles experiment was done to study the oviposition in bean beetles, and whether it is based on the heritage of the bean beetle. The study consisted of two different types of beans and several mung raised bean beetles. Bio Lab 113 Dr. T. Hendrickson Nathan Jay Introduction The purpose of The Jumping Bean Beetle study is to test the hypothesis that Bean beetles’ oviposition is determined by the bean beetles’ birth place.

All procedures for this lab was obtained from the Marshall University BSC 121 Principles of Biology for Majors Laboratory Manual (Weinstein, 2015). On September 22, students in biology 121 section 101 obtained nine pots to plant their respected peas. Once the pots were obtained, students placed paper towels in the bottom of the plots to keep the vermiculite from falling out. When the paper towels were placed in the pots, they were then filled up ¾ of the way full with vermiculite, and were watered

Callosobruchus maculatus, a commonly known species of bean beetles, are found in the tropical areas of Africa and Asia. The body of the species is about 3 – 4.5 mm long, reddish-brown colored with black marks on the prothorax and elytra. Typically, the females are larger and darker than the males. The larvae of the species feed on the seeds of legumes such as mung and black-eyed peas. Callosobruchus maculatus exhibits two adult forms; sedentary and dispersal (Beck & Blumer, 2014).

Choices Over Mung Beans, Adzuki Beans, And Black-Eyed Peas By Female Bean Beetles Raised From Mung Beans And From Black-Eyed Peas Abstract: Female bean beetles make a choice of where to oviposit their eggs because their oviposition choices influence the survival of their offspring.

This experiment aimed to determine the preference of oviposition choice by female bean beetles that were raised from mung beans and black-eyed

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
