title: Effects of co-infection on behavioural traits of experimentally infected pumpkinseed sunfish (Lepomis gibbosus) [Laurentides, Québec, 2022]
title: Effets de la co-infection sur les traits comportementaux du crapet-soleil (Lepomis gibbosus) infecté expérimentalement [Laurentides, Québec, 2022]

description: Data were collected from May to September 2023, at the Station de Biologie des Laurentides, Québec, Canada. The purpose of the data was to look at the effects of an experimental co-infection (with trematodes and cestodes) in a semi-natural environment (using caging in a lake with a high prevalence of parasite, i.e. Lake Cromwell) on the behavioural traits (i.e. exploration, activity and boldness) of 60 pumpkinseed sunfish (Lepomis gibbosus). For each specimen taken, we recorded boldness, exploration, activity measures, mass and length measures, number of black spots before the experimental infection, after the experimental infection on the body, in the muscles, number of cestodes alive vs dead.
description: The file contains the following variables and units of measurement: ID_fish, fish_num (number), cage (number), trial (number), boldness (sec), bassin_bold (number), date_bold (date), exp_bold, video_bold (number), exploration (%), activity (cm), bassin_exp (number), date_act (date), video_act (number), exp_act, mass_1 (g), mass_2 (g), mass_3 (g), mass_4 (g), TL_1 (mm), TL_2 (mm), TL_3 (mm), TL_4 (mm), SL_1 (mm), SL_2 (mm), SL_3 (mm), SL_4 (mm), BS_pre (count), BS_post_corps (count), BS_muscle (count), BS_post_tot (count), P04_alive (count), P04_dead (count), P013_alive (count), P013_dead (count), P06 (count), gonade (0,1), treatment (letter).

title: Data for: On the expression of reproductive plasticity in Drosophila melanogaster females in spatial and socially varying environments

description: In this study, we examined the extent of reproductive plasticity expressed in mating rates, mating latencies, mating durations, and offspring production in female fruit flies, &lt;i&gt;Drosophila melanogaster&lt;/i&gt;, that encountered different numbers of males in different sized chambers. 
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This .csv dataset contains data collected from vials of flies, &lt;i&gt;Drosophila melanogaster&lt;/i&gt; in which a single female fly was placed into a vial with either 1 or 2 males, in which the size of the chamber was small or large, and watched closely for 90 minutes. The occurrence of mating, the time at which mating started (measured in seconds), the duration of mating (measured in seconds) was recorded. The flies were left undisturbed in the vials overnight before being discarded, and the number of offspring that eclosed from those vials was recorded.

title: Data supporting Impact of histone deacetylase inhibition and arimoclomol on heat shock protein expression and disease biomarkers in primary culture models of familial ALS

description: Protein misfolding and mislocalization are common themes in neurodegenerative disorders, including the motor neuron disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Maintaining proteostasis is a crosscutting therapeutic target, including upregulation of heat shock proteins (HSP) to increase chaperoning capacity. Motor neurons have a high threshold for upregulating stress inducible HSPA1A, but constitutively express high levels of HSPA8. This study compared expression of these HSPs in cultured motor neurons expressing three variants linked to familial ALS: TDP-43G348C, FUSR521G or SOD1G93A. All variants were poor inducers of Hspa1a, and reduced levels of Hspa8 mRNA and protein, indicating multiple compromises in chaperoning capacity. To promote HSP expression, cultures were treated with the putative HSP co-inducer, arimoclomol, class I histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors to promote active chromatin for transcription, and the combination. Treatments had variable, often different effects on expression of Hspa1a and Hspa8, depending on the ALS variant expressed, mRNA distribution (somata and dendrites), and biomarker of toxicity measured (histone acetylation, maintaining nuclear TDP-43 and the nBAF chromatin remodeling complex component Brg1, mitochondrial transport, FUS aggregation). Overall, HDAC inhibition alone was effective on more measures than arimoclomol. In the TDP-43 model, arimoclomol failed to induce HSPA1A or preserve Hspa8 mRNA, despite preserving nuclear TDP-43 and Brg1, indicating neuroprotective properties other than HSP induction. The data speak to the complexity of drug mechanisms against multiple biomarkers of ALS pathogenesis, as well as to the importance of HSPA8 for neuronal proteostasis in both somata and dendrites.

title: Arsencial Books in the 19th Century Database

description: "Emerald green" is the name used to describe the compound copper acetoarsenite, an extremely toxic inorganic pigment that was widely used in home textiles, wallpaper, and bookcloth during the 19th century. W.D. Jordan Rare Books and Special Collections at Queen's University conducted portable X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (pXRF) on all suspected green 19th century books in its collection, identifying 26 books that contained emerald green. This database contains the identified books that were submitted to the larger &lt;a href="https://sites.udel.edu/poisonbookproject/"&gt;Poison Book Project&lt;/a&gt;. As a result of the research, handling recommendations and a safety plan designed to minimize the risks associated with the long-term care of identified arsenical books was developed.

title: A larval ‘recruitment kernel’ to predict hatching locations and quantify recruitment patterns

description: A backward-in-time particle tracking model was applied here to predict larval hatching locations by releasing particles at larval nursery locations. Based on the p.d.f. of linear recruitment distance, a larval recruitment kernel was first proposed to quantify recruitment patterns in the case where spawning/hatching sources are unknown. The proposed recruitment kernel holds distinct ecological significance compared to the dispersal kernel. Characteristics of the recruitment kernel (e.g., the self-recruitment) is distinct from those of the dispersal kernel (e.g., the well-known local retention), providing important supplements to population connectivity research. The dataset provides data for all the figures in the paper text.

title: Replication Data for: Redefining lameness assessment: Constructing lameness hierarchy using crowd-sourced data

description: Lameness causes pain to dairy cows and economic losses to farmers, but can be difficult to routinely monitor. Despite numerous attempts to develop automatic detection methods, few have been successfully applied on farms. The development of reliable automated methods is likely restricted by the lack of large, labeled training datasets that capture the diversity in lameness cases within and among farms. Additionally, conventional gait scoring methods employed for annotating training videos are subjective and unreliable, adding noise to training data and thus hindering model performance. We propose a novel approach to lameness assessment in dairy cows, leveraging crowd-sourced data to construct a lameness hierarchy. In this pilot study using 30 cow videos, we evaluated the reliability of traditional gait scoring systems revealing their subjective and inconsistent nature, with intra- and interobserver reliabilities of ICC (intraclass correlation coefficient)=0.62 ± 0.09 and 0.44 ± 0.02, respectively. Conversely, our proposed lameness hierarchy constructed from pairwise lameness assessments, achieved a high interobserver reliability (ICC = 0.81) among experienced assessors. We also demonstrated feasibility for the pairwise assessment to be executed by untrained assessors (in this case crowd workers recruited via Amazon MTurk), evidenced by high agreement between hierarchies generated by crowd workers and experienced assessors (ICC = 0.85). Utilizing a 5-milestone subsampling algorithm, we found that recruiting just 8 crowd workers per video pair is sufficient to construct a reliable lameness hierarchy. This method also decreases the number of pairwise comparisons by 61%, relative to evaluating all possible comparisons between every pair of cows. The proposed lameness hierarchy method facilitates quick and accurate labeling of lameness videos and enables a more granular evaluation of lameness. We suggest that this approach can be used to create large training datasets suitable for developing reliable automatic lameness detection models.

title: Galaxy Rotation Velocity Fittings

description: The folder named data-C-galaxies input contains the input data reported in the Sofue's database in Excel format for the 291 galaxies of this series, while the corresponding data-C-galaxies-output files present the detailed fitting results for each galaxy of the C-Series. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The first plot is the global dispersion curve. The EXCEL file following this spread curve summarizes the fitting parameters, the estimated mass, the maximal velocity and the SNR results obtained for the individual best fitting plots for each galaxy. These plots are successively presented after the EXCEL files. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Similarly, the files named data-P-galaxies input and data-P-galaxies-output as well as data-S-galaxies input and data-S-galaxies-output report the input data and the best fitting results of the 31 galaxies of the P-Series and of the 229 galaxies of the S-Series respectively. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
As seen in the last lines of the EXCEL files, overall, the mean SNR and its standard deviation is 25.2 (3.8) dB for the C-series, 23.6 (5.2) dB for the P-series and 22.1 (5.9) for the S-series, which can be considered as very good for a two-parameter fitting.

title: Data for: Response of boreal plant communities and forest floor carbon fluxes to experimental nutrient additions

description: This is the final dataset for the publication &lt;a href="https://doi.org/10.1007/s10021-023-00899-1"&gt;"Response of boreal plant communities and forest floor carbon fluxes to experimental nutrient additions"&lt;/a&gt; published in the peer-reviewed journal &lt;i&gt;Ecosystems&lt;/i&gt; in 2024. This dataset includes three primary files:&lt;ol&gt;&lt;p&gt;
&lt;li&gt;the plant community composition data&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;the plant functional trait data&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;the forest floor carbon flux and associated environmental variables data.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
Combined, the plant community composition data and plant functional trait data were used to calculate the community-weighted mean traits presented in the manuscript. These data explored changes in community-weighted mean traits of both moss and understory vascular plant communities as well as forest floor carbon flux with nutrient fertilization emulating nutrient increases following permafrost thaw in a boreal peatland (Scotty Creek Research Station, NT: 61°18′ N, 121°,18′ W). We had two sites in this boreal peatland: one with high canopy cover, and one with low canopy cover. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;

We conducted an experiment whereby we set up 25, 0.5 m^2 quadrats at two sites within a boreal peatland (50 total quadrats). We had five different nutrient treatments with five replicates each: an unmanipulated control (no fertilizer or mechanical disturbance), a manipulated control (no fertilizer, with mechanical disturbance similar to the fertilized treatments), shallow fertilization (nutrient added at 20cm soil depth emulating increasing microbial mineralization with warming soil), deep fertilization (nutrient added at 40 cm soil depth emulating release of previously frozen nutrient-rich soil to the active layer), and shallow + deep fertilization (emulating both the shallow and deep treatments simultaneously). 12-4-8 NPK MiracleGro slow-release fertilizer was applied at a dosage of 6 g N m-2. This value is roughly four times that of the predicted maximum rate of increase in N from rising soil temperature and permafrost thaw (e.g., 1.3 g N m-2 yr-1; Keuper and others 2012, &lt;i&gt;Global Change Biology&lt;/i&gt; 18: 1998) but is similar to Keuper and others (2017, &lt;i&gt;Global Change Biology&lt;/i&gt; 23: 4257). Furthermore, being slow-release fertilizer, we expected slow nutrient release over the two-year experiment, mimicking natural conditions. The two sites whereby we set up the experiment differed in canopy cover and therefore allowed us to test if light availability effected the response of carbon fluxes and plant communities to nutrient increases.

title: The efficacy of an experimental biofumigant on Plasmodiophora brassicae

description: Clubroot, Plasmodiophora brassicae, is a soilborne pathogen that causes clubs to form on the roots of brassica crops. Management is difficult due to the longevity of resting spores, the overwintering structure, in the soil. The efficacy of an experimental biofumigant was tested in both field and controlled environment studies. The field trial was conducted on high organic matter (muck) soil comparing 150 L/ha of biofumigant applied with a watering can to a control. In repeated controlled environment studies, 150 L/ha was applied to mineral and muck soils, in sealed plastic bags before transferring soil into pots. Soil samples were taken pre-and post-treatment application to determine the effect on resting spore number. All trials were seeded with clubroot susceptible canola and assessed for clubroot development six or seven weeks after seeding using a 0-3 scale to calculate disease severity index. In the field trial, there was no effect on clubroot severity. There was a decrease in resting spore concentrations, however it was not significant enough to decrease disease development. In the first repetition of the controlled environment study there was low severity and incidence in both soil types. The biofumigant caused a decrease in severity, however there was no interaction with soil type. In the repetition there was no clubroot development in mineral soil but high disease severity in muck soil. There was no effect of the biofumigant on disease severity. The experimental biofumigant may be more efficacious when there is lower disease pressure, however, more research is required.
