title: The mating system affects the temperature sensitivity of male and female fertility

description: 1. To mitigate effects of climate change it is important to understand
 species’ responses to increasing temperatures. This has often been done by
 studying survival or activity at temperature extremes. Before such
 extremes are reached, however, effects on fertility may already be
 apparent. 2. Sex differences in the thermal sensitivity of fertility (TSF)
 could impact species persistence under climate warming because female
 fertility is typically more limiting to population growth than male
 fertility. However, little is known about sex differences in TSF. 3. Here
 we first demonstrate that the mating system can strongly influence TSF
 using the seed beetle Callosobruchus maculatus. We exposed populations
 carrying artificially induced mutations to two generations of short-term
 experimental evolution under alternative mating systems, manipulating the
 opportunity for natural and sexual selection on the mutations. We then
 measured TSF in males and females subjected to juvenile or adult heat
 stress. 4. Populations kept under natural and sexual selection had higher
 fitness, but similar TSF, compared to control populations kept under
 relaxed selection. However, females had higher TSF than males, and
 strikingly, this sex difference had increased over only two generations in
 populations evolving under sexual selection. 5. We hypothesized that an
 increase in male-induced harm to females during mating had played a
 central role in driving this evolved sex difference, and indeed, remating
 under conditions limiting male harassment of females reduced both male and
 female TSF. Moreover, we show that manipulation of mating system
 parameters in C. maculatus generates intraspecific variation in the sex
 difference in TSF equal to that found among a diverse set of studies on
 insects. 6. Our study provides a causal link between the mating system and
 TSF. Sexual conflict, (re)mating rates, and genetic responses to sexual
 selection differ among ecological settings, mating systems and species.
 Our study therefore also provides mechanistic understanding for the
 variability in previously reported TSFs which can inform future
 experimental assays and predictions of species responses to climate
 warming.

title: Allo-preening is linked to vocal signature development in a wild parrot

description: Allo-grooming networks in primate social groups are thought to have
 favored the evolution of vocal recognition systems, including vocal
 imitation in humans, as a more effective means of maintaining social bonds
 in large groups. Select avian taxa converged on vocal learning, but it is
 not clear what role analogues of allo-grooming might have played. Unlike
 allo-grooming in most primates, allo-preening in birds is usually limited
 to pair-bonds. One exception to this is during nestling development when
 siblings preen each other, but it is unknown how allo-preening influences
 vocal learning. We addressed this question in wild Green-rumped Parrotlets
 (Forpus passerinus) in Venezuela. Nestlings learn signature contact calls
 from adult templates. Large broods, age hierarchies and protracted
 development in this species create the potential for complex allo-preening
 networks and a unique opportunity to test how early sociality makes the
 development of vocal learning labile. From audio-video recordings inside
 nest cavities and a balanced design of different brood sizes, we
 quantified allo-preening interactions between marked nestlings, to compare
 to signature contact calls. Controlling for brood size and age hierarchy,
 the propensity to preen a larger number of individuals (i.e.,
 out-strength) correlated positively with the age at first contact call.
 Allo-preening and acoustic similarity matrices did not reveal clear
 correlations within broods, instead larger broods produced greater contact
 call diversity. Results indicate that allo-preening elongates the period
 during which contact calls develop, which might allow individuals time to
 form a unique signature under the computationally challenging social
 conditions inherent to large groups.
description: All-preening interactions and age of first contact call were
 collected from audio-video recordings of parrotlet nesting in Venezuela
 using Adobe Audition. Hatching dates and hatching sequence within broods
 were determined from checking nest contents and marking all eggs and
 nestlings. Sex was determined by noting sexually dichromatic plumage after
 15 days post-hatching.

title: Nitrogen fertilization and high plant growing temperature increase herbivore performance

description: Global environmental change exerts growing pressure on biodiversity.
 Anthropogenic climate and land use change are particularly important
 drivers of biodiversity loss. While their effects on biodiversity have
 been widely studied individually, interactions among them are poorly
 understood. Here, we investigate the effects of two common drivers of
 global change, increased temperature and nitrogen fertilization, on
 host-plant quality and herbivore performance in the butterfly Lycaena
 tityrus. We show that butterfly performance was positively affected by
 plants grown at increased temperatures and nitrogen fertilization, the
 latter being in line with the nitrogen limitation hypothesis. Effects were
 largely consistent across treatments, i.e. nitrogen deposition and
 temperature did not interact strongly to affect herbivore performance.
 Overall, females suffered more strongly than males from poor host-plant
 quality. Our study demonstrates changes in host-plant quality caused by
 variation in temperature and nitrogen availability, which induced indirect
 effects in an herbivore. Such indirect effects of global environmental
 change are an important source of variation and should be considered in
 order to reduce uncertainties with regard to the effects of global change
 on biodiversity.

title: Ubiquity and evolution of structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) proteins in eukaryotes

description: Structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) protein complexes are common
 in Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukaryota. SMC proteins, together with the
 proteins related to SMC (SMC-related proteins), constitute a superfamily
 of ATPases. Bacteria/Archaea and Eukaryotes are distinctive from one
 another in terms of the repertory of SMC proteins. A single type of SMC
 protein is dimerized in the bacterial and archaeal complexes, whereas
 eukaryotes possess six distinct SMC subfamilies (SMC1-6), constituting
 three heterodimeric complexes, namely cohesin, condensin, and SMC5/6
 complex. Thus, to bridge the homodimeric SMC complexes in Bacteria and
 Archaea to the heterodimeric SMC complexes in Eukaryota, we need to invoke
 multiple duplications of an SMC gene followed by functional divergence.
 However, to our knowledge, the evolution of the SMC proteins in Eukaryota
 had not been examined for more than a decade. In this study, we reexamined
 the ubiquity of SMC1-6 in phylogenetically diverse eukaryotes that cover
 the major eukaryotic taxonomic groups recognized to date and provide two
 novel insights into the SMC evolution in eukaryotes. First, multiple
 secondary losses of SMC5 and SMC6 occurred in the eukaryotic evolution.
 Second, the SMC proteins constituting cohesin and condensin (i.e.,
 SMC1-4), and SMC5 and SMC6 were derived from closely related but distinct
 ancestral proteins. Based on the above-mentioned findings, we discuss how
 SMC1-6 have diverged from the archaeal homologs.

title: Data from: Family dynamics reveal that female house mice preferentially breed in their maternal community

description: Whether females breed in their natal group is an important factor in the
 evolution of extended families in animal sociality. Breeding in natal
 groups comes with costs and benefits, depending on group size and presence
 of older relatives, including mothers. Studying the consequences of
 breeding in the natal versus another group provides insight into the
 decisions and trade-offs governing the formation and structure of family
 groups. We investigated the family dynamics of a population of
 free-ranging commensal house mice. Using dynamic community detection on
 long term datasets, we determined which females first bred in their natal
 group. We then looked at how this influenced breeding success. We found
 most females (77%) exhibited strong philopatry, breeding in their natal
 groups. Breeding elsewhere was only somewhat predictable at very large and
 very small group sizes. Despite their philopatric preference, breeding
 elsewhere made no difference in how quickly and successfully a female
 bred. However, presence of their mother did lead females to breed sooner
 when born during high breeding activity, when competition over
 reproduction is high. Based on these results, potential loss of
 reproductive success from leaving the natal group does not seem to be the
 main driver of philopatry in female house mice. The effect of the presence
 of mothers suggests that benefiting from established social connections
 promotes breeding in the natal group. Mothers providing benefits also
 implies a lack of conflict between generations, which will be important
 for the development of stable social groups.

title: Area of Habitat maps for the world's terrestrial birds and mammals

description: Area of Habitat (AOH) is 'the habitat available to a species, that
 is, habitat within its range'. It complements a geographic range map
 for a species by showing potential occupancy and reducing commission
 errors. AOH maps are produced by subtracting areas considered unsuitable
 for the species from their range map, using information on each
 species' associations with habitat and elevation. We present AOH maps
 for 5,481 terrestrial mammal and 10,651 terrestrial bird species
 (including 1,816 migratory bird species for which we present separate maps
 for the resident, breeding, and non-breeding areas). Our maps have a
 resolution of 100 m. On average, AOH covered 66±28% of the range maps for
 mammals and 64±27% for birds. The AOH maps were validated independently,
 following a novel two-step methodology: a modeling approach to identify
 outliers and a species-level approach based on point localities. We used
 AOH maps to produce global maps of the species richness of mammals, birds,
 globally threatened mammals, and globally threatened birds.

title: Phylogeny and character evolution of the neotropical fern genus Cyclodium (Dryopteridaceae)

description: Cyclodium is a neotropical fern genus with 13 species, most of them
 distributed in the Amazonian lowlands, particularly in the Guianan region
 and along the border with the Andes. It belongs to the polybotryoid clade
 of Dryopteridaceae, being unique within this clade by a combination of
 characters related to rhizome growth, leaf dimorphism, anastomosing
 venation, and peltate indusia. Here we present a molecular phylogenetic
 hypothesis for Cyclodium resulting from Bayesian and Maximum Likelihood
 analyses, using molecular sequences of five plastid markers. We also map
 12 morphological characters and habit onto the resulting trees. Our
 results support Cyclodium as monophyletic and sister to Polybotrya. The
 presence of peltate indusia is the main character distinguishing
 Cyclodium. Our results also suggest that plesiomorphic conditions in
 Cyclodium are free venation (vs. anastomosing), creeping rhizomes (vs.
 erect or decumbent), highly dissected laminae (vs. 1-pinnate), monomorphic
 sterile and fertile fronds (vs. dimorphic), and pinnatifid apices (vs.
 conform).

title: Fine-scale spatial segregation in a pelagic seabird driven by differential use of tidewater glacier fronts

description: In colonially breeding marine predators, individual movements and colonial
 segregation are influenced by seascape characteristics. Tidewater glacier
 fronts are important features of the Arctic seascape and are often
 described as foraging hotspots. Albeit their documented importance for
 wildlife, little is known about their structuring effect on arctic
 predator movements and space use. In this study, we tested the hypothesis
 that tidewater glacier fronts can influence marine bird foraging patterns
 and drive spatial segregation among adjacent colonies. We analysed
 movements of black-legged kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla) in a glacial fjord
 by tracking breeding individuals from five colonies. Although breeding
 kittiwakes were observed to travel up to ca. 280 km from the colony,
 individuals were more likely to use glacier fronts located closer to their
 colony and rarely used glacier fronts located farther away than 18 km.
 Such variation in the use of glacier fronts created fine-scale spatial
 segregation among the four closest (ca. 7 km distance on average)
 kittiwake colonies. Overall, our results support the hypothesis that
 spatially predictable foraging patches like glacier fronts can have strong
 structuring effects on predator movements and can modulate the magnitude
 of intercolonial spatial segregation in central-place foragers.

title: Efficient light‐harvesting of mesophotic corals is facilitated by coral optical traits

description: Sustained light-dependent coral reef communities can be found at a wide
 range of light environments, extending from the sea level to as deep as
 150 m (i.e., mesophotic). How mesophotic corals thrive despite extremely
 limited light conditions still requires further investigation. Here, we
 undertook a comprehensive ecophysiological and bio-optical study on four
 depth-generalist coral species aiming to delineate the functional role
 that optical trait-properties have in light-harvesting, at contrasting
 light regimes. We show that the optical traits of coral skeletons are
 adjusted to their ambient light conditions and complement the microalgal
 demands for sufficient light, thus exhibiting a spatially efficient
 photosymbiotic system. In contrast to shallow corals, mesophotic corals
 absorbed up to three-fold more light, resulting in excellent
 photosynthetic response under light conditions of only ~3% of the incident
 surface irradiance. The enhanced light-harvesting capacity of mesophotic
 corals was achieved by redistributing light in the coral skeleton through
 optical scattering, thereby facilitating light transport and absorption by
 densely pigmented host tissue. Our findings provide fundamental insight
 into the light-harvesting mechanisms underlying the productivity of
 mesophotic coral reef ecosystems, yet also raise concerns regarding their
 ability to withstand prolonged environmental disturbances.

title: Testing hormonal responses to real and simulated social challenges in a competitive female bird

description: Competitive interactions often occur in series; therefore animals may
 respond to social challenges in ways that prepare them for success in
 future conflict. Changes in the production of the steroid hormone
 testosterone (T) are thought to mediate phenotypic responses to
 competition, but research over the past few decades has yielded mixed
 results, leading to several potential explanations as to why T does not
 always elevate following a social challenge. Here, we measured T levels in
 tree swallows (Tachycineta bicolor), a system in which females compete for
 limited nesting cavities and female aggression is at least partially
 mediated by T. We experimentally induced social challenges in two ways:
 (1) using decoys to simulate territorial intrusions and (2) removing
 subsets of nesting cavities to increase competition among displaced and
 territory-holding females. Critically, these experiments occurred
 pre-laying, when females are physiologically capable of rapidly increasing
 circulating T levels. However, despite marked aggression in both
 experiments, T did not elevate following real or simulated social
 challenges, and in some cases, socially-challenged females had lower T
 levels than controls. Likewise, the degree of aggression was negatively
 correlated with T levels following a simulated territorial intrusion.
 Though not in line with the idea that social challenges prompt T elevation
 in preparation for future challenges, these patterns nevertheless connect
 T to territorial aggression in females. Coupled with past work showing
 that T promotes aggression, these results suggest that T may act rapidly
 to allow animals to adaptively respond to the urgent demands of a
 competitive event.

title: Female preference for colour-enhanced males: a test of the sensory bias model in medaka, a drab fish

description: Sexual selection research has long focused on the evolution of female mate
 preferences. Most of the models that have been developed posit that mate
 preferences evolve in a mating context. In contrast, the sensory bias
 model proposes that mate choice preferences arise in a non-mating context,
 as a by-product of natural selection acting on a female’s perceptual
 system. Recent research has shown that many species of fishes, from across
 a large clade including poeciliids, goodeids, and medaka, have a bias for
 long wavelength (LW) colors (yellow, orange, red) in a non-mating context.
 Even species that do not have LW-colored ornaments, apparently because
 they have been lost secondarily, retain this latent bias for LW colors.
 Here, we predicted that female Oryzias latipes (Japanese medaka), a drab
 species with a latent preference for LW colors, would show a mate choice
 preference for males with an artificial secondary sexual trait—a colored
 stripe added to their flank. We confirmed that females were more
 responsive to red and orange objects in a non-mating context than to other
 colors. We also showed that females were less resistant towards males with
 a LW-colored stripe than to those enhanced with a non-LW stripe and that,
 for many females, responses towards specific LW colors were consistent
 across these non-mating and mating contexts. Therefore, our results
 provide support for the sensory bias model by providing a link between a
 sensory bias in a non-mating context and a mate choice preference in a
 drab species like medaka.
