title: Mother-to-daughter transmission of hygiene in mandrills

description: Social animals are particularly exposed to infectious diseases.
 Pathogen-driven selection pressure has thus favoured the evolution of
 behavioural adaptations to decrease transmission risk, such as “social
 distancing”. Yet, such strategy might deprive individuals from valuable
 social interactions, generating a cost-benefit trade-off between pathogen
 avoidance and social opportunities. Recent studies revealed that hosts
 differ in the expression of these behavioural defences but the
 determinants driving such inter-individual variation remain poorly
 understood. Using 5 years of detailed behavioural and parasite data
 obtained on a large natural population of non-human primates, we show
 that, during grooming interactions, some female mandrills (Mandrillus
 sphinx) consistently avoid their conspecifics’ peri-anal region, where
 oro-faecally transmitted gastro-intestinal parasites accumulate, while
 others do not. This hygienic trait is further highly repeatable across the
 years and hygienic females are less parasitized on average than
 non-hygienic females. While age, dominance rank and sociality level do not
 influence hygienic tendencies, close maternal kin exhibit similar levels
 of hygiene suggesting social inheritance from mothers to daughters. Our
 study thus emphasizes that social inheritance of hygienic tendencies may
 structure behavioural resistance to pathogens in host populations, with
 unforeseen consequences on the dynamics of infectious diseases.

 grooming event collected during 6 study years (n = 3429): the season
 ("LD" : Long-dry, "LR": Long-rainy, "I":
 intermediate), the identity of the female groomer, the average population
 protozoan richness (during a period ranging from two weeks before to two
 weeks after that grooming event), and whether or not this grooming event
 included the peri-anal region ("PAR": 0/1) of the social
 partner. The table entitled "Table_model2"
 gives protozoan richness of each female, each study month (n = 357
 female.months), as well as female age, dominance rank ("HR":
 high-rank, "MR": medium-rank, "LR": low-rank) and
 proportion of risky grooming events (i.e., including groupmates'
 peri-anal region) for each female each study year
 ("female_annual_PRG"). "Population monthly protozoan
 richness" corresponds to the average protozoan richness in the
 population the corresponding month. The table entitled
 "Table_model3" gives hygienic index for each female each study
 year ("female_annual_HI") as well as female age, dominance rank,
 and sociality level.

title: Attitudes of medical students towards the ethical and legal aspects of abortion: A cross-sectional study from Saudi Arabia

description: Abortion is defined as the termination of pregnancy which is a crucial
 issue to be addressed by multiple regulating systems such as health care
 providers and policy makers. The main aim of the study was to assess the
 attitudes of medical students in Imam Abdulrahman bin Faisal University
 towards abortion in different circumstances. This is a descriptive
 cross-sectional study in which a 20-item online questionnaire was
 distributed through social media platforms to medical students. The
 results of the study showed that the majority of the students believe
 abortion should be determined by law, religion and spousal consent. The
 majority as well support abortion in cases of endangered mother’s life,
 fetal life compromise and rape victims. However, they were against
 abortion in cases of financial incapacity of the parents and cases of
 unplanned pregnancy. The results of the study can be applied to improve
 medical education of abortion. More studies in this field of research are
 recommended for the purpose of providing more inclusive assessment of
 abortion attitudes in different medical education
 settings.

title: Heterogeneity in the abyssal plains: A case study in the Bering Sea

description: The abyssal plains are vast areas without large-scale topography that
 occupy much of the ocean floor. Ecological research in these superficially
 homogenous regions benefits increasingly from non-destructive visual
 sampling of epifaunal organisms with imaging technology. We analysed
 images from ultra high-definition towed camera transects at depths around
 3500 m across three stations 100–130 km apart in the Bering Sea to ask
 whether the density and distribution of visible epifauna indicated any
 substantial heterogeneity. We identified 71 different megafaunal taxa, of
 which 24 occurred at only one station. Measurements of the two most
 abundant faunal elements, the holothurian Elpidia minutissima and
 xenophyophores, indicated significant differences in local densities and
 patchy aggregations that were strikingly dissimilar among stations. One
 station was dominated by xenophyophores, one was relatively depauperate in
 both target taxa as well as other identified megafauna, and the third
 station was dominated by Elpidia. This is an unexpected level of variation
 at relatively small spatial scales (~100 km), within comparable transects
 in a well-mixed oceanic basin, reinforcing the emerging view that abyssal
 habitats contain landscape heterogeneity at similar spatial scales to
 terrestrial continental realms.
description: The dataset contains images and metadata for three deep-sea
 sampling stations collected via towed camera system.
 This study was conducted on board the German research vessel R/V
 SONNE during the ‘AleutBio’ expedition (cruise SO293, July-September
 2022), which aimed to systematically investigate the biodiversity,
 biogeography, and evolution of deep-sea fauna across all size classes in
 the Bering Sea and Aleutian Trench. The scientific party on board included
 taxonomic expertise for most major animal groups. Seafloor imaging was
 undertaken using the Ocean Floor Observation System (OFOS), a towed camera
 on-board R/V SONNE. This system is equipped with a Full-HD video camera
 and a 45-megapixel mirrorless camera with a resolution of 8192 x 5464
 pixels (Canon EOS R5), as well as a tether-management system to maximise
 stability. A complementary flash set accompanies the still camera, which
 requires an average of 10 s to charge between shots. In addition, three
 laser-points arranged in a triangle and separated by 40 cm distances
 provide a scale, calibrated for the still camera.

title: Understanding the effects of stress on the P300 response during naturalistic simulation of heights exposure

description: Stress is a prevalent bodily response universally experienced and
 significantly affects a person's mental and cognitive state. The P300
 response is a commonly observed brain behaviour that provides insight into
 a person's cognitive state. Previous works have documented the
 effects of stress on the P300 behaviour; however, only a few have explored
 the performance in a mobile and naturalistic experimental setup. Our study
 examined the effects of stress on the human brain's P300 behaviour
 through a height exposure experiment that incorporates complex visual,
 vestibular, and proprioceptive stimuli. A more complex sensory environment
 could produce translatable findings toward real-world behaviour and
 benefit emerging technologies such as brain-computer interfaces. 
 Seventeen participants experienced our experiment that elicited the stress
 response through physical and virtual height exposure. We found two unique
 groups within our participants that exhibited contrasting behavioural
 performance and P300 target reaction response when in a stressed state
 (when walking at heights). One group performed worse when stressed and
 exhibited a significant decrease in parietal P300 peak amplitude and
 increased beta and gamma power. Contrarily, the group less affected by
 stress exhibited a change in their N170 peak amplitude and alpha/mu
 rhythms desynchronisation. The findings of our study suggest that a more
 individualised approach to assessing a person's behaviour performance
 under stress can aid in understanding P300 performance when experiencing
 stress.

title: Data for: The costs and benefits of polyandry in a sexually cannibalistic mantis

description: Mating with more than one male often provides direct or indirect benefits
 to female fitness but can also increase the chance of injury and death.
 Costs of mating are expected to increase linearly with increasing mating
 number. But how such costs interact with benefits to determine the net
 payoff of mating multiply is not well understood. Using the highly
 cannibalistic Springbok mantis, Miomantis caffra, a species where females
 are stabbed in the abdomen by males during violent premating struggles
 that males initiate to avoid being cannibalised, we took an experimental
 approach to assess the economics of polyandry under the risk of external,
 male-inflicted injury. We predicted that females that mate multiply would
 be more likely to show abdominal injuries, have higher prereproductive
 mortality, produce fewer offspring, and be more likely to engage in
 pre-mating cannibalism to avoid unwanted matings. In line with our
 predictions, we found that the likelihood of abdominal injury was highest
 among females that mated at least once, and prereproductive death was
 highest among females that mated twice or three times. Virgin females
 completely avoided these costs and produced some offspring
 parthenogenetically but not enough to provide a net benefit. Although
 mating was better than not mating, there was no singularly optimal mating
 number: females that mated once and three times produced similarly high
 numbers of offspring from the first ootheca, which resulted in an
 intermediate trough in offspring production at two matings. We also found
 little evidence that cannibalism was deployed as a mate-avoidance
 strategy: females consistently attacked and consumed males regardless of
 how many times they mated or how long they were housed with males. Our
 results suggest the possibility of two distinct mating strategies in M.
 caffra, where females either mate at a lower frequency to minimise costs
 or at a higher frequency to maximise benefits. We discuss possible
 explanations for this bimodal pattern in offspring production.

title: Transcriptomic analysis of UBQLN2-ALS Drosophila

description: The goal of this project was to elucidate gene expression changes in flies
 expressing ALS-associated alleles of the ubiqutin chaperone, UBQLN2. We
 employed flies expressing wild-type (UBQLN2-WT) or mutant (P497H and
 4XALS) human UBQLN2 proteins under the control of an eye-specific GMR
 driver at room temperature or 29C. The 4XALS allele harbors four different
 ALS-associated mutations. Total head RNA from all three UBQLN2 genotypes
 and GMR&gt;Gal4 controls was subjected to RNA-Seq analysis using
 Novogene. Among other findings, we found that innate immunity genes were
 strongly upregulated in UBQLN2-4XALS flies and that UBQLN2-WT and
 UBQLN2-P497H flies have highly similar transcriptional signatures.
description: Four different genotypes were reared at 22C or 29C: GMR-Gal4
 (control); GMR&gt;UBQLM2-WT; GMR&gt;UBQLN2-P497H; and
 UBQLN2-4XALS. 100 or more flies of each genotype were collected 1-3 days
 post eclosion. The heads were removed and stored until RNA extraction and
 processing. The RNA was then sent to Novogene for cDNA library generation
 and sequencing.

title: Algorithms for determining transposable genes in a genome

description: Transposons are nucleotide sequences in DNA that can change their
 positions. Many transposons are shorter than a general gene. When we
 restrict to nucleotide sequences that form complete genes, we can still
 find genes that change their relative locations in a genome. Thus for
 different individuals of the same species, the orders of genes might be
 different. A practical problem is to determine such transposable genes in
 given gene sequences. Through an intuitive rule, we transform the
 biological problem of determining transposable genes into a rigorous
 mathematical problem of determining the longest common subsequence.
 Depending on whether the gene sequence is linear (each sequence has a
 fixed head and tail) or circular (we can choose any gene as the head, and
 the previous one is the tail), and whether genes have multiple copies, we
 classify the problem of determining transposable genes into four
 scenarios: (1) linear sequences without duplicated genes; (2) circular
 sequences without duplicated genes; (3) linear sequences with duplicated
 genes; (4) circular sequences with duplicated genes. With the help of
 graph theory, we design fast algorithms for different scenarios.
 Specifically, we study the situation where the longest common subsequence
 is not unique. This dataset contains code files for the corresponding
 algorithms. Besides, it has gene sequence data for certain Escherichia
 coli strains (from NCBI), which are used to test those algorithms.

title: Data for: General cognitive performance declines with female age and is negatively related to fledging success in a wild bird

description: Identifying the causes and fitness consequences of intraspecific variation
 in cognitive performance is fundamental to understand how cognition
 evolves. Selection may act on different cognitive traits separately or
 jointly as part of the general cognitive performance of the individual. To
 date, few studies have examined simultaneously whether individual
 cognitive performance covaries across different cognitive tasks, the
 relative importance of individual and social attributes in determining
 cognitive variation, and its fitness consequences in the wild. Here, we
 tested 38 wild southern pied babblers (Turdoides bicolor) on a cognitive
 test battery targeting associative learning, reversal learning and
 inhibitory control. We found that a single factor explained 59.5% of the
 variation in individual cognitive performance across tasks, suggestive of
 a general cognitive factor. General cognitive performance varied by age
 and sex; declining with age in females but not males. Older females also
 tended to produce a higher average number of fledglings per year compared
 to younger females. Analysing over 10 years of breeding data, we found
 that individuals with lower general cognitive performance produced more
 fledglings per year. Collectively, our findings support the existence of a
 trade-off between cognitive performance and reproductive success in a wild
 bird.

title: Geography, environment, and colonization history interact with morph type to shape genomic variation in an Arctic fish

description: Polymorphic species are useful models for investigating the evolutionary
 processes driving diversification. Such processes include colonization
 history as well as contemporary selection, gene flow, and genetic drift,
 which can vary between intraspecific morphs as a function of their
 distinct life histories. The interactive and relative influence of such
 evolutionary processes on morph differentiation critically informs
 morph-specific management decisions and our understanding of incipient
 speciation. We therefore investigated how geographic distance,
 environmental conditions, and colonization history interacted with morph
 migratory capacity in the highly polymorphic fish species, Arctic Charr
 (Salvelinus alpinus). Using an 87k SNP chip we genetically characterized
 recently evolved anadromous, resident, and landlocked charr collected from
 45 locations across a secondary contact zone of three charr glacial
 lineages in eastern Canada. A strong pattern of isolation by distance
 across all populations suggested geographic distance principally shaped
 genetic structure. Landlocked populations had lower genetic diversities
 and higher genetic differentiation than anadromous populations. However,
 genetic diversity was generally temporally stable in landlocked
 populations in comparison to recent decreases in anadromous populations.
 Genetic diversity positively correlated with latitude, potentially
 indicating southern anadromous populations’ vulnerability to climate
 change and greater introgression between the Arctic and Atlantic glacial
 lineages in northern Labrador. Local adaptation was suggested by the
 observation of several environmental variables strongly associating with
 functionally relevant outlier genes including a region on chromosome AC21
 potentially associated with anadromy. Our results demonstrate that gene
 flow, colonization history, and local adaptation uniquely interact to
 influence the genetic variation and evolutionary trajectory of
 populations.

title: Data for: Grazing effects of wintering geese on grassland yield: A long-term study from NW-Germany

description: Conflicts between grassland farming and wintering geese stimulated a
 long-term study on goose-dependent yield losses. In the period 1996-2018
 the loss of dry biomass of the first harvest increased from ca. 15 % to 50
 % which corresponds with changes in the number and migratory behaviour of
 the barnacle goose. In contrast we found no decline in grassland yields
 with increasing number of greater white-fronted geese. The second harvest
 was not affected by wintering geese. The present study forms the basis for
 a fair and comprehensible system of compensation payments fo affected
 farmers.
description: The effects of goose grazing were mesured by comparing dry
 biomass yields of the first and second harvest in grazed and ungrazed
 plots of the same size in fields distributed over the whole study site.
 Apart from the dry biomass we compared the quality of the harvest of both
 plot types, particularly the contents of energy, crude protein, crude
 fiber and ash. We weekly monitored the densities of barnacle and greater
 white-fronted geese as well as the combined number of all geese during the
 whole wintering period across an area of 100 ha around the investigated
 plots.
description: The data are imported in two text files for the first and the
 second harvest, respectively. Additionally, we created an excel-file
 explaining the character of the different variables.
