Abstract

The metagenomic datasets of the microbial DNA from tropical bed bugs (Cimex hemipterus) after feeding on human blood were presented. Next-generation sequencing of the community DNA was carried out on an Illumina Miseq platform and the raw fastq files were analyzed using QIIME (version 1.9.1). The metagenome of three samples comprised of 108,198 sequences representing 44,646,263 bps with a mean length of 412.63 bps. The sequence data is accessible at the NCBI SRA under the bioproject number PRJNA600667. Community analysis showed Proteobacteria was the most abundance (more than 99%) microbial community that present in the guts of fully fed tropical bed bugs.
