title: Data from: Requirements and access needs of patients with chronic disease to their hospital electronic health record: results of a cross-sectional questionnaire survey

description: Objectives: To identify patient’s views on the functionality required for
 personalised access to the secondary care EHR and their priorities for
 development. Design: Quantitative analysis of a cross-sectional
 self-complete survey of patient views on required EHR functionality from a
 secondary care EHR, including a patient ranking of functionality. Setting:
 Secondary care patients attending a regional cystic fibrosis unit in the
 north of England Participants: 201 adults [106 (52.7%) male], median age
 29 years (range 17-58 years) entered and completed the study. Inclusion
 criteria; a confirmed diagnosis of CF, aged 16 years and over, at a time
 of clinical stability Outcome measures: Quantitative responses within 4
 themes; 1) value placed on aspects of the EHR; 2) access requirements to
 functions of the EHR; 3) views on information sent to the EHR 4) patient
 feedback entered into the EHR. A ranked score for 15 functions of the EHR
 was obtained Results: Highest ratings (% reporting item as very
 important/important) were reported for access to clinical measures [lung
 function (94%), CRP (84%), sputum microbiology (81%) and blood results
 (80%)], medication changes (82%) and lists (83%) and sending repeat
 prescription (83%) and treatment requests (80%), whilst sending symptom
 diaries was less so (62%). Email contact with clinicians was the most
 valuable communication element of the EHR (84% very important/important).
 Of 15 features of the EHR [1=most desirable to 15=least desirable)
 patients identified ‘clinical measures’ [2.62 (CI 2.07-3.06)], and ‘access
 to medication lists’ [4.91 (CI 4.47-5.44)], as highest priority for
 development and the ability to comment on errors/ommissions [11.0 (CI
 10.6-11.5)] or experience of care [11.8 (CI 11.4-12.2)] as lowest.
 Conclusions: Patients want extensive personal access to their hospital
 EHR, placing high importance on the viewing of practical clinical measures
 and medication management. These influence routine day to day care and are
 priorities for development

title: Data from: Queen presence mediates the relationship between collective behavior and disease susceptibility in ant colonies

description: The success of social living can be explained, in part, by a group's
 ability to execute collective behaviors unachievable by solitary
 individuals. However, groups vary in their ability to execute these
 complex behaviors, often because they vary in their phenotypic
 composition. Group membership changes over time due to mortality or
 emigration, potentially leaving groups vulnerable to ecological challenges
 in times of flux. In some societies, the loss of important individuals
 (e.g., leaders, elites, queens) may have an especially detrimental effect
 on groups’ ability to deal with these challenges. Here, we test whether
 the removal of queens in colonies of the acorn ant Temnothorax
 curvispinosus alters their ability to execute important collective
 behaviors and survive outbreaks of a generalist entomopathogen. We
 employed a split-colony design where one half of a colony was maintained
 with its queen, while the other half was separated from the queen. We then
 tested these subcolonies’ performance in a series of collective behavior
 assays and finally exposed colonies to the entomopathogenic fungus
 Metarhizium robertsii by exposing two individuals from the colony and then
 sealing them back into the nest. We found that queenright subcolonies
 outperformed their queenless counterparts in nearly all collective
 behaviors. Queenless subcolonies were also more vulnerable to mortality
 from disease. However, queenless groups that displayed more interactions
 with brood experienced greater survivorship, a trend not present in
 queenright subcolonies. Queenless subcolonies that engage in more brood
 interactions may have had more resources available to cope with two
 physiological challenges (ovarian development after queen loss and immune
 activation after pathogen exposure). Our results indicate that queen
 presence can play an integral role in colony behavior, survivorship, and
 their relationship. They also suggest that interactions between workers
 and brood are integral to colonies survival. Overall, a social
 group's history of social reorganization may have strong consequences
 on their collective behaviors and their vulnerability to disease
 outbreaks.

title: Data from: Asymmetrical nature of the Trollius-Chiastocheta interaction: insights into the evolution of nursery pollination systems

description: The mutualistic versus antagonistic nature of an interaction is defined by
 costs and benefits of each partner, which may vary depending on the
 environment. Contrasting with this dynamic view, several pollination
 interactions are considered as strictly obligate and mutualistic. Here, we
 focus on the interaction between Trollius europaeus and Chiastocheta
 flies, considered as a specialized and obligate nursery pollination system
 – the flies are thought to be exclusive pollinators of the plant and their
 larvae develop only in T. europaeus fruits. In this system, features such
 as the globelike flower shape are claimed to have evolved in a
 coevolutionary context. We examine the specificity of this pollination
 system and measure traits related to offspring fitness in isolated T.
 europaeus populations, in some of which Chiastocheta flies have gone
 extinct. We hypothesize that if this interaction is specific and obligate,
 the plant should experience dramatic drop in its relative fitness in the
 absence of Chiastocheta. Contrasting with this hypothesis, T. europaeus
 populations without flies demonstrate a similar relative fitness to those
 with the flies present, contradicting the putative obligatory nature of
 this pollination system. It also agrees with our observation that many
 other insects also visit and carry pollen among T. europaeus flowers. We
 propose that the interaction could have evolved through maximization of
 by-product benefits of the Chiastocheta visits, through the male flower
 function, and selection on floral traits by the most effective pollinator.
 We argue this mechanism is also central in the evolution of other nursery
 pollination systems.

title: Data from: Sex-biased gene flow among elk in the greater Yellowstone ecosystem

description: We quantified patterns of population genetic structure to help understand
 gene flow among elk populations across the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem.
 We sequenced 596 base pairs of the mitochondrial (mt)DNA control region of
 380 elk from eight populations. Analysis revealed high mtDNA variation
 within populations, averaging 13.0 haplotypes with high mean gene
 diversity (0.85). The genetic differentiation among populations for mtDNA
 was relatively high (FST = 0.161; P = 0.001) compared to genetic
 differentiation for nuclear microsatellite data (FST = 0.002; P = 0.332),
 which suggested relatively low female gene flow among populations. The
 estimated ratio of male to female gene flow (m_m/m_f = 46) was among the
 highest we have seen reported for large mammals. Genetic distance (for
 mtDNA pair-wise FST) was not significantly correlated with geographic
 (Euclidean) distance between populations (Mantel's r = 0.274, P =
 0.168). Large mtDNA genetic distances (e.g. FST &gt; 0.2) between some
 of the geographically closest populations (&lt;65 km) suggested
 behavioral factors and/or landscape features might shape female gene flow
 patterns. Given the strong sex-biased gene flow, future research and
 conservation efforts should consider the sexes separately when modeling
 corridors of gene flow or predicting spread of maternally transmitted
 diseases. The growing availability of genetic data to compare male versus
 female gene flow provides many exciting opportunities to explore the
 magnitude, causes, and implications of sex-biased gene flow likely to
 occur in many species.

title: Data from: A process-independent explanation for the general form of Taylor’s Law

description: Taylor’s law (TL) describes the scaling relationship between the mean and
 variance of populations as a power law. TL is widely observed in
 ecological systems across space and time, with exponents varying largely
 between 1 and 2. Many ecological explanations have been proposed for TL,
 but it is also commonly observed outside ecology. We propose that TL
 arises from the constraining influence of two primary variables: the
 number of individuals and the number of censuses or sites. We show that
 most possible configurations of individuals among censuses or sites
 produce the power-law form of TL, with exponents between 1 and 2. This
 “feasible set” approach suggests that TL is a statistical pattern driven
 by two constraints, providing an a priori explanation for this ubiquitous
 pattern. However, the exact form of any specific mean-variance
 relationship cannot be predicted in this way, that is, this approach does
 a poor job of predicting variation in the exponent, suggesting that TL may
 still contain ecological information.

title: Data from: The role of species-specific sensory cues in male responses to mating rivals in Drosophila melanogaster fruitflies

description: Complex sets of cues can be important in recognising and responding to
 conspecific mating competitors and avoiding potentially costly
 heterospecific competitive interactions. Within Drosophila. melanogaster,
 males can detect sensory inputs from conspecifics to assess the level of
 competition. They respond to rivals by significantly extending mating
 duration and gain significant fitness benefits from doing so. Here, we
 tested the idea that the multiple sensory cues used by D. melanogaster
 males to detect conspecifics also function to minimise ‘off-target’
 responses to heterospecific males that they might encounter (D. simulans,
 D. yakuba. D. pseudoobscura or D. virilis). Focal D. melanogaster males
 exposed to D. simulans or D. pseudoobscura subsequently increased mating
 duration, but to a lesser extent than following exposure to conspecific
 rivals. The magnitude of rivals responses expressed by D. melanogaster
 males did not align with genetic distance between species and none of the
 sensory manipulations caused D. melanogaster to respond to males of all
 other species tested. However, when we removed or provided ‘false’ sensory
 cues, D. melanogaster males became more likely to show increased mating
 duration responses to heterospecific males. We suggest that benefits of
 avoiding inaccurate assessment of the competitive environment may shape
 the evolution of recognition cues.

title: Data from: The origins of novelty from within the confines of homology: the developmental evolution of the digging tibia of dung beetles

description: Understanding the origin of novel complex traits is among the most
 fundamental goals in evolutionary biology. The most widely used definition
 of novelty in evolution assumes the absence of homology, yet where
 homology ends and novelty begins is increasingly difficult to parse as evo
 devo continuously revises our understanding of what constitutes homology.
 Here, we executed a case study to explore the earliest stages of
 innovation by examining the tibial teeth of tunneling dung beetles. Tibial
 teeth are a morphologically modest innovation, composed of relatively
 simple body wall projections and contained fully within the fore tibia, a
 leg segment whose own homology status is unambiguous. We first demonstrate
 that tibial teeth aid in multiple digging behaviors. We then show that the
 developmental evolution of tibial teeth was dominated by the redeployment
 of locally pre-existing gene networks. At the same time, we find that even
 at this very early stage of innovation, at least two genes that
 ancestrally function in embryonic patterning and thus entirely outside the
 spatial and temporal context of leg formation, have already become
 recruited to help shape the formation of tibial teeth. Our results suggest
 a testable model for how developmental evolution scaffolds innovation.

title: Data from: Revisiting the relative growth rate hypothesis for gymnosperm and angiosperm species co‐occurrence

description: Premise of the study: It is unclear to what extent the co-occurrence of
 angiosperm and gymnosperm species in some marginal ecosystems is explained
 by reduced growth in angiosperms due to carbon (C) limitation, and by high
 stress tolerance in gymnosperms associated with lack of vessels and
 resource conservation. Methods: We examined growth patterns and traits
 associated with C balance in four evergreen angiosperm species (including
 one vesselless species, Drimys winteri) and three gymnosperm tree species
 of a cold-temperate rainforest in southern Chile. We measured the mean
 basal area increment for the first 50 (BAI50) and the last 10 years
 (BAI10), wood density, leaf lifespan, and non-structural carbohydrate
 (NSC) concentrations in different organs. Key results: BAI50 was 6-fold
 higher in angiosperms than in gymnosperms, and c. 4-fold higher in Drimys
 than in the fastest growing gymnosperm. BAI10 and aboveground NSC
 concentrations were significantly higher and leaf lifespan lower in
 angiosperms than in gymnosperms; these differences though were largely
 driven by the slow growth and low NSC concentrations of the Cupressaceae
 species (Pilgerodendron uviferum), while the two Podocarpaceae showed
 similar BAI10 and NSC concentrations to angiosperms. In angiosperms, NSC
 and starch concentrations were generally higher in species with lower
 BAI10, indicating no severe C limitation. Conclusions: The co-occurrence
 of angiosperms and gymnosperms in cold-temperate rainforests of southern
 Chile is not explained by growth disadvantages and C limitation in
 angiosperms. High leaf longevity, but not lack of vessels, appeared to
 favor resource conservation and C balance in some gymnosperms
 (Podocarpaceae). In compliance with data protection regulations, please

title: Data from: Macronutrient balance modulates the temperature-size rule in an ectotherm

description: Most ectotherms mature at a larger body size in colder conditions, a
 phenomenon known as the temperature-size rule. While a number of
 hypotheses have been proposed to explain this rule, little work has been
 done to understand it from a nutritional perspective. We have used the
 final-instar caterpillars of Spodoptera litura to investigate how dietary
 protein∶carbohydrate (P∶C) balance influences the relationship between
 temperature and body size. The strength and direction of the thermal
 reaction norm for body size were significantly altered by dietary P∶C
 balance. The slope of the reaction norm was nearly flat for caterpillars
 raised on a balanced food () but was significantly negative for those on
 nutritionally imbalanced foods (1∶5 or 5∶1), especially when carbohydrates
 were in considerable excess. These nutrient-dependent effects of
 temperature on body size were caused mainly by corresponding changes in
 body lipid storage. When allowed to choose between imbalanced diets,
 caterpillars increased their preference for carbohydrates to meet high
 energy demands at higher temperatures. The slope of the thermal reaction
 norm for body size was substantially reduced by such a temperature-driven
 shift in nutrient preference, indicating that the impact of high
 temperature on body size was buffered by altered food selection. This
 study highlights the importance of macronutrient balance as a key factor
 modulating the relationship between temperature and body size in
 ectotherms and provides a novel approach for understanding the
 temperature-size rule.

title: Data from: The role of rare morph advantage and conspicuousness in the stable gold-dark colour polymorphism of a crater lake Midas cichlid fish

description: 1. Genetically based stable colour polymorphisms provide a unique
 opportunity to study the evolutionary processes that preserve genetic
 variability in the wild. Different mechanisms are proposed to promote the
 stability of polymorphisms, but only few empirical examples have been
 documented, resulting in an incomplete understanding of these mechanisms.
 2. A remarkable genetically-determined stable colour polymorphism is found
 in the Nicaraguan Midas cichlid species complex (Amphilophus cf.
 citrinellus). All Midas cichlids start their life with a dark-grey
 colouration (dark morph), but individuals carrying the dominant “gold”
 allele (~10%) lose their melanophores later in life, revealing the
 underlying orange colouration (gold morph). How this polymorphism is
 maintained remains unclear. Two main hypotheses have been proposed, both
 suggesting differential predation upon colour morphs as the proximate
 mechanism. One predicts that the conspicuous gold morph is more likely to
 be preyed upon, but this disadvantage is balanced by their competitive
 dominance over the dark morph. The second hypothesis suggests a rare morph
 advantage where the rarer gold morph experiences less predation. Empirical
 evidence for either of these mechanisms is still circumstantial and
 inconclusive. 3. We conducted two field experiments in a Nicaraguan crater
 lake using wax models simulating both morphs to determine predation
 pressure upon Midas cichlid colour morphs. First, we tested the
 interaction of colouration and depth on attack rate. Second, we tested the
 interaction of fish size and colouration. We contrasted the pattern of
 attacks from these experiments to the predicted predation patterns from
 the hypotheses proposed to explain the colour polymorphism’s stability. 4.
 Large models imitating colour morphs were attacked at similar rates
 irrespectively of their position in the water column. Yet, attacks upon
 small models resembling juveniles were directed mainly toward dark models.
 This resulted in a significant size-by-colour interaction. 5. We suggest
 that gold Midas cichlids experience a rare morph advantage as juveniles
 when individuals of this morph are extremely uncommon. But this effect is
 reduced or disappears among adults, where gold individuals are relatively
 more common. Thus, the interaction of rare morph advantage and
 conspicuousness, rather than either of those factors alone, is a likely
 mechanism resulting in the stability of the colour polymorphism in Midas
 cichlids.
