title: Bacterial dispersal and drift drive microbiome diversity patterns within a population of feral hindgut fermenters

description: Studies of microbiome variation in wildlife often emphasize host
 physiology and diet as proximate selective pressures acting on
 host-associated microbiota. In contrast, microbial dispersal and
 ecological drift are more rarely considered. Using amplicon sequencing, we
 characterized the bacterial microbiome of adult female (n = 86) Sable
 Island horses (Nova Scotia, Canada) as part of a detailed individual-based
 study of this feral population. Using data on sampling date, horse
 location, age, parental status, and local habitat variables, we contrasted
 the ability of spatiotemporal, life history, and environmental factors to
 explain microbiome diversity among Sable Island horses. We extended
 inferences made from these analyses with both phylogeny-informed and
 phylogeny-independent null modeling approaches to identify deviations from
 stochastic expectations. Phylogeny-informed diversity measures were
 correlated with spatial and local habitat variables, but null modelling
 results suggested that heterogeneity in ecological drift, rather than
 differential selective pressures acting on the microbiome, was responsible
 for these correlations. Conversely, phylogeny-independent diversity
 measures were best explained by host spatial and social structure,
 suggesting that taxonomic composition of the microbiome was shaped most
 strongly by bacterial dispersal. Parental status was important but
 correlated with measures of β-dispersion rather than β-diversity (mares
 without foals had lower alpha diversity and more variable microbiomes than
 mares with foals). Our results suggest that between host microbiome
 variation within the Sable Island horse population is driven more strongly
 by bacterial dispersal and ecological drift than by differential selective
 pressures. These results emphasize the need to consider alternative
 ecological processes in the study of microbiomes.

title: Data from: Diagnostic yield in epileptic encephalopathies is improved by genome sequencing and re-analysis

description: Objective: To assess the benefits and limitations of whole genome
 sequencing (WGS) compared to exome sequencing (ES) or multigene panel
 (MGP) in the molecular diagnosis of developmental and epileptic
 encephalopathies (DEE). Methods: We performed WGS of 30 comprehensively
 phenotyped DEE patient trios that were undiagnosed after first-tier
 testing, including chromosomal microarray (CMA), and either research ES
 (n=15) or diagnostic MGP (n=15). Results: 8 diagnoses were made in the 15
 individuals who received prior ES (53%): 3 individuals had complex
 structural variants; 5 had ES-detectable variants which now had additional
 evidence for pathogenicity. 11 diagnoses were made in the 15 MGP-negative
 individuals (68%); the majority (n=10) involved genes not included in the
 panel, particularly in individuals with post-neonatal onset of seizures
 and those with more complex presentations including movement disorders,
 dysmorphic features and/or multi-organ involvement.  42% of
 diagnoses were autosomal recessive or X-chromosome linked. Conclusion: WGS
 was able to improve diagnostic yield over ES primarily through the
 detection of complex structural variants (n=3). The higher diagnostic
 yield was otherwise better attributed to the power of re-analysis rather
 than inherent advantages of the WGS platform. Additional research is
 required to assist in the assessment of pathogenicity of novel non-coding
 and complex structural variants and further improve diagnostic yield for
 patients with DEE and other neurogenetic disorders.

title: Technology adoption on nanostores business processes

description: This dataset contains structured data on technology adoption across business processes in Indonesian nanostores. Nanostores are micro, independent, and unorganized retail outlets that play a significant role in local economies. The dataset was developed to support the empirical analysis in the study titled “When Indonesian Nanostores Goes Digital: Exploring Technology Diffusion Through Business Processes.”The dataset represents technology adoption at the business process level, rather than at the firm level. Each observation captures whether and how digital technologies are adopted within specific retail business processes, including store operations, product management, marketing activities, transaction handling, and product delivery. The original survey responses were collected from nanostore owners and operators and subsequently transformed into process-based adoption indicators to enable comparative and network-based analysis.To ensure analytical consistency, the raw survey data were pre-processed through data cleaning, normalization, and categorical transformation. The transformed variables reflect standardized adoption states that allow the identification of adoption patterns, segmentation of adopters, and examination of interdependencies among business processes. This transformation makes the dataset suitable for advanced quantitative techniques such as cluster analysis and network modeling.

title: Compartmentalized organization of ecological niche occupation in insular invertebrate communities

description: Understanding the mechanisms of species distribution within ecosystems is
 a fundamental question of ecological research. The current worldwide
 changes and loss of habitats associated with a decline in species richness
 render this topic a key element for developing mitigation strategies.
 Ecological niche theory is a widely accepted concept to describe species
 distribution along environmental gradients where each taxon occupies its
 own distinct set of environmental parameters, i.e. its niche. Niche
 occupation has been described in empirical studies for different closely
 related taxa, like ant, ungulate, or skink species, just to name a few.
 However, how species assemblages of whole ecosystems across multiple taxa
 are structured and organized has not been investigated thoroughly,
 although considering all taxa of a community would be essential when
 analyzing realized niches. Here, we investigated the organization of niche
 occupation and species distribution for the whole ground-associated
 invertebrate community of small tropical insular ecosystems. By
 correlating environmental conditions with species occurrences using
 partial canonical correspondence analysis (pCCA), we demonstrated that the
 ground-associated invertebrate community does not spread evenly across the
 overall niche space, but instead is compartmentalized in four distinct
 clusters: crustacean and gastropod taxa occurred in one cluster,
 attributable to the beach habitat, whereas hexapods and spider taxa
 occurred in three distinct inland clusters, attributable to distinct
 inland habitats, i.e. grassland, open forest, and dense forest. Within the
 clusters, co-occurrence pattern analysis suggested only a few negative
 interactions between the different taxa. By studying ground-associated
 insular invertebrate communities, we have shown that species distribution
 and niche occupation can be, similar to food webs, organized in a
 compartmentalized way. The compartmentalization of the niche space might
 thereby be a mechanism to increase ecosystem resilience, as disturbances
 cascade more slowly throughout the ecosystem.

title: Dataset for collaborative prediction of web service quality based on user preferences and services

description: The prediction of web service quality plays an important role in
 improving user services; it has been one of the most popular topics in the
 field of Internet services. In traditional collaborative filtering
 methods, differences in the personalization and preferences of different
 users have been ignored. In this paper, we propose a prediction
 method for web service quality based on different types of
 quality of service (QoS) attributes. Different extraction rules are
 applied to extract the user preference matrices from the original web
 data, and the negative value filtering-based top-K method is used to merge
 the optimization results into the collaborative prediction method. Thus,
 the individualized differences are fully exploited, and the problem of
 inconsistent QoS values is resolved. The experimental results
 demonstrate the validity of the proposed method. Compared with
 other methods, the proposed method performs better, and the results are
 closer to the real values.
description: The experimental dataset was the QoSDataset2 from the publicly released WS-DREAM and the Web service searching engines: xmethods.net. The experimental dataset was the QoSDataset2 from the publicly released WS-DREAM, and the Web service searching engines: xmethods.net. The dataset includes 5301 Web services,214 Services Users and response time. We constructed three user-service matrices with different of size = 100 × 100, size = 100 × 150, size = 150 × 100 by randomly extracting a certain number of users and services.

title: Moths as pollinators of four Cucurbitaceae crops in Asia

description: Each sample of hypanthium length (mm) comes from one plant
 individual.   Nectar measurement includes two aspects,
 i.e. nectar volume (μL) and nectar concentration (%). The
 pollination experiment includes two treatments, i.e. diurnal insect
 exclusion vs nocturnal insect exclusion. The number of bagged female
 flowers per individual means  how many female flowers per
 individual plant were treated. The fruit number means how many fruits
 successfully developed from the treated female flowers.
description: They were collected around villages in southern China by
 measuring flowers and nectar and conducting pollination treatments. They
 have not been processed.
description: These data document the results of pollination treatments and
 measurements of floral traits.  There are no missing values. I do not
 think these data need any further files for re-use because they are
 just in a common and most straightforward form.

title: Data from: Ocean warming affected faunal dynamics of benthic invertebrate assemblages across the Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event in the Iberian Basin (Spain)

description: The Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event (TOAE; Early Jurassic, ca. 182 Ma ago)
 represents one of the major environmental disturbances of the Mesozoic and
 is associated with global warming, widespread anoxia, and a severe
 perturbation of the global carbon cycle. Warming-related dysoxia-anoxia
 has long been considered the main cause of elevated marine extinction
 rates, although extinctions have been recorded also in environments
 without evidence for deoxygenation. We addressed the role of warming and
 disturbance of the carbon cycle in an oxygenated habitat in the Iberian
 Basin, Spain, by correlating high resolution quantitative faunal
 occurrences of early Toarcian benthic marine invertebrates with
 geochemical proxy data (δ18O and δ13C). We find that temperature, as
 derived from the δ18O record of shells, is significantly correlated with
 taxonomic and functional diversity and ecological composition, whereas we
 find no evidence to link carbon cycle variations to the faunal patterns.
 The local faunal assemblages before and after the TOAE are taxonomically
 and ecologically distinct. Most ecological change occurred at the onset of
 the TOAE, synchronous with an increase in water temperatures, and involved
 declines in multiple diversity metrics, abundance, and biomass. The TOAE
 interval experienced a complete turnover of brachiopods and a predominance
 of opportunistic species, which underscores the generality of this pattern
 recorded elsewhere in the western Tethys Ocean. Ecological instability
 during the TOAE is indicated by distinct fluctuations in diversity and in
 the relative abundance of individual modes of life. Local recovery to
 ecologically stable and diverse post-TOAE faunal assemblages occurred
 rapidly at the end of the TOAE, synchronous with decreasing water
 temperatures. Because oxygen-depleted conditions prevailed in many other
 regions during the TOAE, this study demonstrates that multiple mechanisms
 can be operating simultaneously with different relative contributions in
 different parts of the ocean.
description: Quantitative
 bed-by-bed sampling performed by consistently collecting the same amount
 of bulk rock for each sample. Fossils of benthic macroinvertebrates
 (mainly brachiopods and molluscs) were identified preferentially at
 species level and occurrences recorded in the field. Each taxon was
 assigned to a specific mode of life (combination of feeding, tiering and
 motility strategies). The script file provides the
 codes used to carry out the analyses shown and discussed in the related
 paper. The analyses were performed in the R environment (v. 3.5.3).
 Information about the necessary R packages and other details regarding the
 script are included at the beginning of the script itself.

title: Concatenated DNA matrix and BEAST tree used for phylogenetic, dating, biogeographic and diversification analyses of Caribbean Podocarpus

description: Aim The Progression Rule, that older lineages inhabit older islands and
 colonize newer ones as they emerge, has seldom been tested in the
 Caribbean due to its geological complexity.  Here we use the
 conifer genus Podocarpus to explore this hypothesis. We infer the
 evolutionary history, biogeography, and diversification rates of this
 genus under a hypothesis testing framework. Location The Caribbean
 archipelago (Antilles) Methods We present the most comprehensive sampling
 for Caribbean Podocarpus to date in a Bayesian dated phylogenetic tree
 using a genotyping by sequencing DNA matrix of 67,589 bp. We inferred
 ancestral ranges and inter-island divergence patterns using several models
 available. We explored diversification rates associated with island
 colonization, and checked for diversification rate shifts in the
 phylogeny. Results Caribbean Podocarpus is the result of colonization from
 the Andes during the Eocene to Oligocene (ca. 45-31 Ma). Lesser Antillean
 species originated during the Oligocene from the Andes or the Greater
 Antilles, depending on the model of choice. Vicariance can explain the
 divergence of Cuban and Hispaniolan species, with subsequent dispersals
 into Jamaica. Despite the availability of new habitat opportunities, which
 might promote cladogenesis, insular Podocarpus did not show higher
 diversification rates than continental taxa. Main conclusions The
 conditions for progression rule were not met because colonization of
 younger islands (Lesser Antilles) occurred from the continent, or because
 suitable habitat in the partially emerged younger islands was likely
 present at the time older islands (Greater Antilles) were colonized. An
 improved paleogeographic knowledge of the Caribbean will allow testing
 this hypothesis in multiple lineages. Our finding that diversification
 rates did not increase with island colonization might be common in other
 Caribbean lineages. Genotyping by sequencing proved promising to reveal
 complex historical assembly processes of vicariance and dispersal at a
 fine phylogenetic scale.

title: Walruses produce intense impulse sounds by clap-induced cavitation during breeding displays

description: Male walruses produce the longest continuous reproductive displays known
 in the animal kingdom to convey their individual fitness to potential
 rivals, and possibly to potential mates. Here we document the ability of a
 captive walrus to produce intense, rhythmic sounds through a non-vocal
 pathway involving deliberate, regular collision of the fore flippers.
 High-speed videography linked to an acoustic onset marker revealed sound
 production through cavitation, with the acoustic impulse generated by each
 forceful clap exceeding a peak-to-peak sound level of 200 dB re. 1 μPa.
 This clapping display is in some ways quite similar to the knocking
 display more commonly associated with walruses in rut but is produced
 through a very different mechanism and with much higher amplitudes. While
 this clapping behaviour has not yet been documented in wild individuals,
 it has been observed among other mature male walruses living in human
 care. Production of intense sounds through cavitation has previously been
 documented only in crustaceans but may also be an effective means of sound
 production for some aquatic mammals.

title: Hibiscus nextRAD-seq conservation genomics

description: The Neches River Rose Mallow (Hibiscus dasycalyx) is a rare wildflower
 endemic to Texas that is federally protected in the US. While previous
 work suggests that H. dasycalyx may be hybridizing with its widespread
 congeners, the Halberd-leaved Rose Mallow (H. laevis) and the Wolly Rose
 Mallow (H. moscheutos), this has not been studied in detail. We evaluated
 the relative threats to H. dasycalyx posed by hybridization with H. laevis
 and H. moscheutos by 1) examining their relatedness to one another via
 modern phylogenomic methods, 2) examining the species’ ecological
 (dis)similarities to one another using ecological niche modeling, and 3)
 looking for genomic evidence of hybridization among the three species. Our
 results suggest that H. dasycalyx is very closely related and ecologically
 similar to H. laevis, and suggest that H. laevis is interbreeding with H.
 dasycalyx in the wild. Conversely, H. moscheutos appears to be more
 distantly related to H. dasycalyx and more ecologically dissimilar, and
 the two are most likely not hybridizing. For these reasons, we believe
 that H. laevis poses a greater threat to H. dasycalyx than H. moscheutos.
 We offer some hypotheses as to why H. dasycalyx and H. laevis are coming
 into secondary contact where hybridization can occur.

title: Retreat of Humboldt Gletscher, North Greenland, driven by undercutting from a warmer ocean

description: Humboldt Gletscher is a 100-km wide, slow-moving glacier in north
 Greenland which holds a 19-cm global sea level equivalent. Humboldt has
 been the fourth largest contributor to sea level rise since 1972 but the
 cause of its mass loss has not been elucidated. Multi-beam echo sounding
 data collected in 2019 indicate a seabed 200 m deeper than previously
 known. Conductivity temperature depth (CTD) data reveal the presence of
 warm water of Atlantic origin at 0°C at the glacier front and a warming of
 the ocean waters by 0.9±0.1°C since 1962. Using an ocean model, we
 reconstruct grounded ice undercutting by the ocean, combine it with
 calculated retreat caused by ice thinning to floatation, and are able to
 fully explain the observed retreat. Two thirds of the retreat is caused by
 undercutting of grounded ice, which is a physical process not included in
 most ice sheet models.
