Number of beetle offspring

The total number of dung beetle offspring collected from dung mesocosms over the course of the experiment. Each mesocosm is associated with a cow ID and treatment (antibiotic or control)

Performance measurements of beetle offspring

The average head capsule size and fresh weight of larval dung beetle offspring collected from each dung mesocosm. Each mesocosm is associated with cow ID and treatment (antibiotic or control). No head size measurement was available for mesocosm #25

Mapping file for sequence data

The metadata associated with sequenced samples

Greenhouse gas fluxes

Cumulative (interpolated) fluxes of CH4, N2O, and CO2 from each dung mesocosm, which is associated with cow ID, the presence/absence of beetles, and treatment (antibiotic / control). Note that there were missing readings due to technical mishaps: two per compound from mesocosm 39 (antibiotic treatment + with beetles); one per compound from mesocosm 49 (control treatment + no beetles) and one per compound from mesocosm 51 (control + with beetles). These missing values were replaced by the appropriate treatment-and-day-specific means for each compound

Replace Demultiplexed sequences

Demultiplexed paired-end 16S rRNA sequence reads (forward and reverse). These sequences are the output of the UPARSE script prep_fastq_for_uparse_paired.py (they have not been merged or quality-filtered). Note that this sequence run was a combination of additional samples/projects not included in the paper (not in the associated mapping file)
