Description of the data and file structure

Data for all analyses are provided as *.csv files. Each csv file has an associated R code that was used for the analysis of these data. R version 4.3.1. Model simulations were also conducted using R. For these simulations, separate models and code were used for each of the three treatments (control, long-duration, and short-duration). Models for each treatment are also divided into those for a scenario with host beans added at 12-day intervals (pulsed addition) and a scenario with host beans added daily (no pulse). The latter R files have a “_ndnp2.R”.
