title: Data from: One size fits all? Determinants of sperm transfer in a highly dimorphic orb-web spider

description: The evolutionary significance of widespread hypo-allometric scaling of
 genital traits in combination with rapid interspecific genital trait
 divergence has been of key interest to evolutionary biologists for many
 years and remains poorly understood. Here, we provide a detailed
 assessment of quantitative genital trait variation in males and females of
 the sexually highly dimorphic and cannibalistic orb-weaving spider Argiope
 aurantia. We then test how this trait variation relates to sperm transfer
 success. In particular, we test specific predictions of the
 one-size-fits-all and lock-and-key hypotheses for the evolution of genital
 characters. We use video-taped staged matings in a controlled environment
 with subsequent morphological microdissections and sperm count analyses.
 We find little support for the prediction of the one-size-fits-all
 hypothesis for the evolution of hypo-allometric scaling of genital traits,
 namely that intermediate trait dimensions confer highest sperm transfer
 success. Likewise, our findings do not support the prediction of the
 lock-and-key hypothesis that a tight fit of male and female genital traits
 mediates highest sperm transfer success. We do, however, detect
 directional effects of a number of male and female genital characters on
 sperm transfer, suggesting that genital trait dimensions are commonly
 under selection in nature. Importantly, even though females are much
 larger than males, spermatheca size limits the number of sperm
 transferred, contradicting a previous hypothesis about the evolutionary
 consequences of genital size dimorphism in extremely size-dimorphic taxa.
 We also find strong positive effects of male body size and copulation
 duration on the probability of sperm transfer and the number of sperm
 transferred, with implications for the evolution of extreme sexual size
 dimorphism and sexual cannibalism in orb weavers.

title: Data from: New insights into floral morph variation in Passiflora incarnata L. (Passifloraceae) in Tennessee, U.S.A.

description: Passiflora incarnata is a functionally andromonoecious clonal wildflower,
 native to the southeastern United States, whose primary pollinator is the
 carpenter bee, Xylocopa virginica. While recent studies looking at
 reproductive ecology in P. incarnata have classified flowers as one of two
 morphs (male or hermaphroditic) based on stylar deflexion, preliminary
 field studies conducted in Tennessee indicated there were five distinct
 morphs present (three male, two hermaphroditic), supported by stylar
 deflexion, floral size, and pistil development. The present study sought
 to test the hypothesis that five distinct floral morphs are present in P.
 incarnata by sampling 13 floral characters, and to document variation in
 nectar constituents, volume, and concentration across the five morphs.
 Five well-established individual plants were examined at three sites in
 Cookeville, Tennessee. Two-factor permuted analysis of variance of 13
 floral characteristics with floral morph and individual plants as factors
 suggested that morph:plant interactions explained 6%, individual plant
 explained 18%, and floral morph explained 36% of variation in floral
 characteristics. Nectar sampling indicated that all morphs produced nectar
 comprised exclusively of sucrose. Nectar volume generally increased with
 floral morph size, while nectar concentration decreased. NMDS analysis
 indicated that the five hypothesized morphs were supported as distinct,
 with substantial overlap between the two largest morphs (4a and 4b). The
 supported morphs are best distinguished by ovary width, ovary length,
 style length, and stigma width. These findings support a hypothesis that
 the morphs result from variation in developmental arrest during floral
 ontogeny. The ecological implications of the five morphs and nectar
 variation are considered for X. virginica with suggestions for additional
 studies.

title: Data from: Transmission pathways and spillover of an erythrocytic bacterial pathogen from domestic cats to wild felids

description: Many pathogens infect multiple hosts, and spillover from domestic to wild
 species poses a significant risk for spread of diseases that threaten
 wildlife and humans. Documentation of cross-species transmission, and
 unravelling the mechanisms that drive it, remains a challenge. Focusing on
 co-occurring domestic and wild felids, we evaluate possible transmission
 mechanisms and evidence of spillover of ‘Candidatus Mycoplasma
 haemominutum’ (CMhm), an erythrocytic bacterial parasite of cats. We
 examine transmission and possibility of spillover by analysing CMhm
 prevalence, modeling possible transmission pathways, deducing genotypes of
 CMhm pathogens infecting felid hosts based on sequences of the bacterial
 16S rRNA gene, and conducting phylogenetic analyses with ancestral state
 reconstruction to identify likely cross-species transmission events. Model
 selection analyses suggest both indirect (i.e., spread via vectors) and
 direct (i.e., via inter-specific predation) pathways may play a role in
 CMhm transmission. Phylogenetic analyses indicate that transmission of
 CMhm appears to predominate within host species, with occasional
 spillover, at unknown frequency, between species. These analyses are
 consistent with transmission by predation of smaller cats by larger
 species, with subsequent within-species persistence after spillover. Our
 results implicate domestic cats as a source of global dispersal and
 spillover to wild felids via predation. We contribute to the emerging
 documentation of predation as a common means of pathogen spillover from
 domestic to wild cats, including pathogens of global conservation
 significance. These findings suggest risks for top predators as
 bioaccumulators of pathogens from subordinate species.

title: Data from: A single Tim translocase in the mitosomes of Giardia intestinalis illustrates convergence of protein import machines in anaerobic eukaryotes

description: Mitochondria have evolved diverse forms across eukaryotic diversity in
 adaptation to anaerobiosis. Mitosomes are the simplest and the least
 well-studied type of anaerobic mitochondria. Transport of proteins via TIM
 complexes, composed of three proteins of the Tim17 protein family
 (Tim17/22/23), is one of the key unifying aspects of mitochondrial and
 mitochondria-derived organelles. However, multiple experimental and
 bioinformatic attempts have so far failed to identify the nature of TIM in
 mitosomes of the anaerobic metamonad protist, Giardia intestinalis, one of
 the few experimental models for mitosome biology. Here, we present the
 identification of a single G. intestinalis Tim17 protein (GiTim17), made
 possible only by the implementation of a metamonad-specific hidden Markov
 model. While very divergent in primary sequence and in predicted membrane
 topology, experimental data suggest that GiTim17 is an inner membrane
 mitosomal protein, forming a disulphide-linked dimer. We suggest that the
 peculiar GiTim17 sequence reflects adaptation to the unusual, detergent
 resistant, inner mitosomal membrane. Specific pull-down experiments
 indicate interaction of GiTim17 with mitosomal Tim44, the tethering
 component of the import motor complex. Analysis of TIM complexes across
 eukaryote diversity indicates that a “single Tim” translocase is a
 convergent adaptation of mitosomes in anaerobic protists, with Tim22 and
 Tim17 (but not Tim23), providing the protein backbone.

title: Data from: Governance, agricultural intensification and land sparing in tropical South America

description: In this paper we address two topical questions: How do the quality of
 governance and agricultural intensification impact on spatial expansion of
 agriculture? Which aspects of governance are more likely to ensure that
 agricultural intensification allows sparing land for nature? Using data
 from the Food and Agriculture Organization, the World Bank, the World
 Database on Protected Areas, and the Yale Center for Environmental Law and
 Policy, we estimate a panel data model for six South American countries
 and quantify the effects of major determinants of agricultural land
 expansion, including various dimensions of governance, over the period
 1970–2006. The results indicate that the effect of agricultural
 intensification on agricultural expansion is conditional on the quality
 and type of governance. When considering conventional aspects of
 governance, agricultural intensification leads to an expansion of
 agricultural area when governance scores are high. When looking
 specifically at environmental aspects of governance, intensification leads
 to a spatial contraction of agriculture when governance scores are high,
 signaling a sustainable intensification process.

title: Data from: Neoadjuvant and concurrent chemotherapy have varied impacts on the prognosis of patients with the ascending and descending types of nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated with intensity-modulated radiotherapy

description: Purpose: To compare the outcomes of patients with ascending type
 (T4&N0-1) and descending type (T1-2&N3) of nasopharyngeal
 carcinoma (NPC) treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT),
 neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) + intensity-modulated radiotherapy (RT) or
 NACT + CCRT. Methods: Retrospective analysis of 839 patients with
 ascending or descending types of NPC treated at a single institution
 between October 2009 to February 2012. CCRT was delivered to 236 patients,
 NACT + RT to 302 patients, and NACT + CCRT to 301 patients. Results: The
 4-year overall survival rate, distant metastasis-free survival rate, local
 relapse-free survival rate, nodal relapse-free survival rate,
 loco-regional relapse-free survival rate, and progression free survival
 rate were 75.2% and 73.4% (P = 0.114), 85.7% and 74.1% (P = 0.008), 88.8%
 and 97.1% (P = 0.013), 96.9% and 94.1% (P = 0.122), 86.9% and 91.2% (P =
 0.384), 73.7% and 66.2% (P = 0.063) in ascending type and descending type.
 Subgroup analyses indicated that NACT + RT significantly improved distant
 metastasis-free survival rate and progression-free survival rate when
 compared with CCRT in the ascending type, and there were no significant
 differences between the survival curves of NACT +RT and NACT + CCRT. For
 descending type, there were no significant differences among the survival
 curves of NACT +RT, CCRT, and NACT + CCRT groups, and the survival benefit
 mainly came from CCRT. Conclusions: Compared with NACT + CCRT or CCRT,
 NACT + RT may be a reasonable approach for ascending type; Although
 concurrent chemotherapy was effective in descending type, NACT + CCRT may
 be a more appropriate strategy for descending type.

title: Data from: Random noise can help to improve synchronisation of excimer laser pulses

description: Recently, we have reported on a compact microcontroller-based unit
 developed to accurately synchronize excimer laser pulses (Mingesz et al.
 2012 Fluct. Noise Lett. 11, 1240007 (doi:10.1142/S021947751240007X)). We
 have shown that dithering based on random jitter noise plus pseudorandom
 numbers can be used in the digital control system to radically reduce the
 long-term drift of the laser pulse from the trigger and to improve the
 accuracy of the synchronization. In this update paper, we present our new
 experimental results obtained by the use of the delay-controller unit to
 tune the timing of a KrF excimer laser as an addition to our previous
 numerical simulation results. The hardware was interfaced to the laser
 using optical signal paths in order to reduce sensitivity to
 electromagnetic interference and the control algorithm tested by
 simulations was applied in the experiments. We have found that the system
 is able to reduce the delay uncertainty very close to the theoretical
 limit and performs well in real applications. The simple, compact and
 flexible system is universal enough to also be used in various
 multidisciplinary applications.

title: Data from: The maintenance of phenotypic divergence through sexual selection: an experimental study in barn swallows Hirundo rustica

description: Previous studies have shown that sexual signals can rapidly diverge among
 closely related species. However, we lack experimental studies to
 demonstrate that differences in trait-associated reproductive performance
 maintain sexual trait differences between closely related populations, in
 support for a role of sexual selection in speciation. Populations of
 Northern Hemisphere distributed barn swallows Hirundo rustica are closely
 related, yet differ in two plumage-based traits: ventral color and length
 of the outermost tail feathers (streamers). Here we provide experimental
 evidence that manipulations of these traits result in different
 reproductive consequences in two subspecies of barn swallow: (H. r.
 erythrogaster in North America and H. r. transitiva in the East
 Mediterranean). Experimental results in Colorado, USA, demonstrate that
 males with (1) darkened ventral coloration and (2) shortened streamers
 gained paternity between two successive reproductive bouts. In contrast,
 exaggeration of both traits improved reproductive performance within H. r.
 transitiva in Israel: males with a combination treatment of darkened
 ventral coloration and elongated streamers gained paternity between two
 successive reproductive bouts. Collectively, these experimental results
 fill an important gap in our understanding for how divergent sexual
 selection maintains phenotype differentiation in closely related
 populations, an important aspect of the speciation process.

title: Data from: Body temperature regulation in hot environments

description: Organisms in hot environments will not be able to passively dissipate
 metabolically generated heat. Instead, they have to revert to evaporative
 cooling, a process that is energetically expensive and promotes excessive
 water loss. To alleviate these costs, birds in captivity let their body
 temperature increase, thereby entering a state of hyperthermia. Here we
 explore the use of hyperthermia in wild birds captured during the hot and
 dry season in central Nigeria. We found pronounced hyperthermia in several
 species with the highest body temperatures close to predicted lethal
 levels. Furthermore, birds let their body temperature increase in direct
 relation to ambient temperatures, increasing body temperature by 0.22°C
 for each degree of increased ambient temperature. Thus to offset the costs
 of thermoregulation in ambient temperatures above the upper critical
 temperature, birds are willing to let their body temperatures increase by
 up to 5°C above normal temperatures. This flexibility in body temperature
 may be an important mechanism for birds to adjust to predicted increasing
 ambient temperatures in the future.

title: Data from: Estimations of evapotranspiration in an age sequence of Eucalyptus plantations in subtropical China

description: Eucalyptus species are widely planted for reforestation in subtropical
 China. However, the effects of Eucalyptus plantations on the regional
 water use remain poorly understood. In an age sequence of 2-, 4- and
 6-year-old Eucalyptus plantations, the tree water use and soil evaporation
 were examined by linking model estimations and field observations. Results
 showed that annual evapotranspiration of each age sequence Eucalyptus
 plantations was 876.7, 944.1 and 1000.7 mm, respectively, accounting for
 49.81%, 53.64% and 56.86% of the annual rainfall. In addition, annual soil
 evaporations of 2-, 4- and 6-year-old were 318.6, 336.1, and 248.7 mm of
 the respective Eucalyptus plantations. Our results demonstrated that
 Eucalyptus plantations would potentially reduce water availability due to
 high evapotranspiration in subtropical regions. Sustainable management
 strategies should be implemented to reduce water consumption in Eucalyptus
 plantations in the context of future climate change scenarios such as
 drought and warming.
