title: Data from: A large 28S rDNA-based phylogeny confirms the limitations of established morphological characters for classification of proteocephalidean tapeworms (Platyhelminthes, Cestoda)

description: Proteocephalidean tapeworms form a diverse group of parasites currently
 known from 315 valid species. Most of the diversity of adult
 proteocephalideans can be found in freshwater fishes (predominantly
 catfishes), a large proportion infects reptiles, but only a few infect
 amphibians, and a single species has been found to parasitize possums.
 Although they have a cosmopolitan distribution, a large proportion of taxa
 are exclusively found in South America. We analyzed the largest
 proteocephalidean cestode molecular dataset to date comprising more than
 100 species (30 new), including representatives from 54 genera (80%) and
 all subfamilies, thus significantly improving upon previous works to
 develop a molecular phylogeny for the group. The Old World origin of
 proteocephalideans is confirmed, with their more recent expansion in South
 America. The earliest diverging lineages are composed of Acanthotaeniinae
 and Gangesiinae but most of the presently recognized subfamilies (and
 genera) appear not to be monophyletic; a deep systematic reorganization of
 the order is thus needed and the present subfamilial system should be
 abandoned. The main characters on which the classical systematics of the
 group has been built, such as scolex morphology or relative position of
 genital organs in relation to the longitudinal musculature, are of limited
 value, as demonstrated by the very weak support for
 morphologically-defined subfamilies. However, new characters, such as the
 pattern of uterus development, relative ovary size, and egg structure have
 been identified, which may be useful in defining phylogenetically
 well-supported subgroups. A strongly supported lineage infecting various
 snakes from a wide geographical distribution was found. Although several
 improvements over previous works regarding phylogenetic resolution and
 taxon coverage were achieved in this study, the major polytomy in our
 tree, composed largely of siluriform parasites from the Neotropics,
 remained unresolved and possibly reflects a rapid radiation. The genus
 Spasskyellina Freze, 1965 is resurrected for three species of Monticellia
 bearing spinitriches on the margins of their suckers.

title: Data from: The quantitative genetics of physiological and morphological traits in an invasive terrestrial snail: additive versus non-additive genetic variation

description: 1. The distribution of additive versus non-additive genetic variation in
 natural populations represents a central topic of research in
 evolutionary/organismal biology. For evolutionary physiologists,
 functional or whole-animal performance traits (“physiological traits”) are
 frequently studied assuming they are heritable and variable in
 populations. 2. Physiological traits of evolutionary relevance are those
 functional capacities measured at the whole-organism level, with a
 potential impact on fitness. They can be classified as capacities (or
 performances) or costs, the former being directly correlated with fitness,
 and the latter being inversely correlated with fitness (usually assumed as
 constraints). 3. In spite of their obvious adaptive significance, the
 additive genetic variation of physiological traits, and its relative
 contribution to phenotypic variance (or narrow-sense heritability) in
 comparison to maternal, dominance or epistatic variance, is known only for
 a few groups such as insects and mammals. 4. In this study, we assessed
 the additive and maternal/non-additive genetic variation in a suite of
 physiological and morphological traits in populations of the land snail
 Cornu aspersum. 5.Except for dehydration rate (h2= 0.32 ± 0.15), egg mass
 (h2= 0.82 ± 0.30) and hatchling mass (h2= 1.01 ± 0.31) (population = fixed
 effect), we found very low additive genetic variation. Large
 non-additive/maternal effects were found in all traits. Cage effects did
 not change the results, indicating low contribution of common
 environmental variance to our results. No differences were found between
 the phenotypic or non-additive genetic variance/covariance matrices. 6.
 Even though we compared populations across 1300 km in a common garden
 setup, our results suggest an absence of physiological as well as
 morphological differentiation in these populations. 7. These results
 contrast with previous analyses in the original distributional range of
 this species, which found high additive genetic variation in morphological
 traits. These are intriguing results demanding further quantitative
 genetic studies in the original distributional range of this species as
 well as the history of colonization of this invasive species.

title: Data from: Population structure of the invasive forest pathogen Hymenoscyphus pseudoalbidus

description: Understanding the genetic diversity and structure of invasive pathogens in
 source and introduced areas is crucial to reveal hidden biological aspects
 of an organism, to reconstruct the course of invasions and to establish
 effective control measures. Hymenoscyphus pseudoalbidus (anamorph: Chalara
 fraxinea) is an invasive and highly destructive fungal pathogen on common
 ash Fraxinus excelsior in Europe and occurs natively in east Asia. To get
 insights into the dispersal mechanism and the history of invasion, we used
 microsatellite markers and characterized the genetic structure and
 diversity of H. pseudoalbidus populations at three spatial levels: (i) in
 Europe; (ii) at the epidemic front and (iii) between Europe and Japan. The
 1208 European strains form one large population as no evident structure
 was detected using Bayesian and multivariate clustering analysis. Only the
 distribution of genetic diversity in space, pairwise population
 differentiation (GST) and the spatial analysis of principal components
 revealed a faint geographic pattern around Europe. A significant allele
 deficiency in most European populations pointed to a recent genetic
 bottleneck whereas no pattern of isolation by distance was found.
 Populations from Japan harbored a higher genetic diversity and were
 genetically differentiated from European ones. Nevertheless, phylogenetic
 and network analysis clearly demonstrated that individuals from both
 regions are conspecific. Our data suggest that H. pseudoalbidus was
 introduced only once by a minimum of two individuals. The potential source
 region of H. pseudoalbidus is huge and further investigations are required
 for a more accurate localization of the source population.

title: Data from: Baculovirus-induced tree-top disease: how extended is the role of egt as a gene for the extended phenotype?

description: Many parasites alter host behaviour to enhance their chance of
 transmission. Recently, the ecdysteroid UDP-glucosyl transferase (egt)
 gene from the baculovirus Lymantria dispar multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus
 (LdMNPV) was identified to induce tree-top disease in L. dispar larvae.
 Infected gypsy moth larvae died at elevated positions (hence the term
 tree-top disease), which is thought to promote dissemination of the virus
 to lower foliage. It is, however, unknown whether egt has a conserved role
 among baculoviruses in inducing tree-top disease. Here, we studied
 tree-top disease induced by the baculovirus Autographa californica
 multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) in two different host insects,
 Trichoplusia ni and Spodoptera exigua, and we investigated the role of the
 viral egt gene therein. AcMNPV induced tree-top disease in both T. ni and
 S. exigua larvae, although in S. exigua a moulting-dependent effect was
 seen. Those S. exigua larvae undergoing a larval moult during the
 infection process died at elevated positions, while larvae that did not
 moult after infection died at low positions. For both T. ni and S. exigua,
 infection with a mutant AcMNPV lacking egt did not change the position
 where the larvae died. We conclude that egt has no highly conserved role
 in inducing tree-top disease in lepidopteran larvae. The conclusion that
 egt is a ‘gene for an extended phenotype’ is therefore not generally
 applicable for all baculovirus-host interactions. We hypothesize that in
 some baculovirus-host systems (including LdMNPV in L. dispar) an effect of
 egt on tree-top disease can be observed through indirect effects of egt on
 moulting-related climbing behaviour.

title: Data from: Effect of phytoplankton richness on phytoplankton biomass is weak where the distribution of herbivores is patchy

description: Positive effects of competitor species richness on competitor productivity
 can be more pronounced at a scale that includes heterogeneity in
 ‘bottom-up’ environmental factors, such as the supply of limiting
 nutrients. The effect of species richness is not well understood in
 landscapes where variation in ‘top-down’ factors, such as the abundance of
 predators or herbivores, has a strong influence competitor communities. I
 asked how phytoplankton species richness directly influenced standing
 phytoplankton biomass in replicate microcosm regions where one patch had a
 population of herbivores (Daphnia pulicaria) and one patch did not have
 herbivores. The effect of phytoplankton richness on standing phytoplankton
 biomass was positive but weak and not statistically significant at this
 regional scale. Among no-Daphnia patches, there was a significant positive
 effect of phytoplankton richness that resulted from positive selection
 effects for two dominant and productive species in polycultures. Among
 with-Daphnia patches there was not a significant effect of phytoplankton
 richness. The same two species dominated species-rich polycultures in no-
 and with-Daphnia patches but both species were relatively vulnerable to
 consumption by Daphnia. Consistent with previous studies, this experiment
 shows a measurable positive influence of primary producer richness on
 biomass when herbivores were absent. It also shows that given the patchy
 distribution of herbivores at a regional scale, a regional positive effect
 was not detected.

title: Data from: Reduced genetic variance among high fitness individuals: inferring stabilizing selection on male sexual displays in D. serrata

description: Directional selection is prevalent in nature yet phenotypes tend to remain
 relatively constant, suggesting a limit to trait evolution. However, the
 genetic basis of this limit is unresolved. Given widespread pleiotropy,
 opposing selection on a trait may arise from the effects of the underlying
 alleles on other traits under selection, generating net stabilizing
 selection on trait genetic variance. These pleiotropic costs of trait
 exaggeration may arise through any number of other traits, making them
 hard to detect in phenotypic analyses. Stabilizing selection can be
 inferred, however, if genetic variance is greater among low compared to
 high fitness individuals. We extend a recently suggested approach to
 provide a direct test of a difference in genetic variance for a suite of
 cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) in Drosophila serrata. Despite strong
 directional sexual selection on these traits, genetic variance differed
 between high and low fitness individuals and was greater among the low
 fitness males for seven of eight CHCs, significantly more than expected by
 chance. Univariate tests of a difference in genetic variance were
 non-significant but likely have low power. Our results suggest that
 further CHC exaggeration in D. serrata in response to sexual selection is
 limited by pleiotropic costs mediated through other traits.

title: Data from: Empirical and theoretical investigation into the potential impacts of insecticide resistance on the effectiveness of insecticide-treated bed nets

description: In spite of widespread insecticide resistance in vector mosquitoes
 throughout Africa, there is limited evidence that long lasting
 insecticidal bed nets (LLINs) are failing to protect against malaria.
 Here, we showed that LLIN contact in the course of host-seeking resulted
 in higher mortality of resistant Anopheles spp. mosquitoes than predicted
 from standard laboratory exposures with the same net. We also found that
 sub-lethal contact with an LLIN caused a reduction in blood feeding and
 subsequent host-seeking success in multiple lines of resistant mosquitoes
 from the lab and the field. Using a transmission model, we showed that
 when these LLIN-related lethal and sub-lethal effects were accrued over
 mosquito lifetimes, they greatly reduced the impact of resistance on
 malaria transmission potential under conditions of high net coverage. If
 coverage falls, the epidemiological impact is far more pronounced.
 Similarly, if the intensity of resistance intensifies, the loss of malaria
 control increases non-linearly. Our findings help explain why insecticide
 resistance has not yet led to wide scale failure of LLINs, but reinforce
 the call for alternative control tools and informed resistance management
 strategies.

title: Data from: Plasticity in growth of farmed and wild Atlantic salmon: is the increased growth rate of farmed salmon caused by evolutionary adaptations to the commercial diet?

description: Background: Domestication of Atlantic salmon for commercial aquaculture
 has resulted in farmed salmon displaying substantially higher growth rates
 than wild salmon under farming conditions. In contrast, growth differences
 between farmed and wild salmon are much smaller when compared in the wild.
 The mechanisms underlying this contrast between environments remain
 largely unknown. It is possible that farmed salmon have adapted to the
 high-energy pellets developed specifically for aquaculture, contributing
 to inflated growth differences when fed on this diet. We studied growth
 and survival of 15 families of farmed, wild and F1 hybrid salmon fed three
 contrasting diets under hatchery conditions; a commercial salmon pellet
 diet, a commercial carp pellet diet, and a mixed natural diet consisting
 of preserved invertebrates commonly found in Norwegian rivers. Results:
 For all groups, despite equal numbers of calories presented by all diets,
 overall growth reductions as high 68 and 83%, relative to the salmon diet
 was observed in the carp and natural diet treatments, respectively. Farmed
 salmon outgrew hybrid (intermediate) and wild salmon in all treatments.
 The relative growth difference between wild and farmed fish was highest in
 the carp diet (1: 2.1), intermediate in the salmon diet (1:1.9) and lowest
 in the natural diet (1:1.6). However, this trend was non-significant, and
 all groups displayed similar growth reaction norms and plasticity towards
 differing diets across the treatments. Conclusions: No indication of
 genetic-based adaptation to the form or nutritional content of commercial
 salmon diets was detected in the farmed salmon. Therefore, we conclude
 that diet alone, at least in the absence of other environmental stressors,
 is not the primary cause for the large contrast in growth differences
 between farmed and wild salmon in the hatchery and wild. Additionally, we
 conclude that genetically-increased appetite is likely to be the primary
 reason why farmed salmon display higher growth rates than wild salmon when
 fed ad lib rations under hatchery conditions. Our results contribute
 towards an understanding of the potential genetic changes that have
 occurred in farmed salmon in response to domestication, and the potential
 mechanisms underpinning genetic and ecological interactions between farmed
 escapees and wild salmonids.
