title: Data from: Epistasis, phenotypic disequilibrium and contrasting associations with climate in the land snail Theba pisana

description: Hotter conditions favour effectively unbanded (EUB) shells in the snail
 Theba pisana. T. pisana is also polymorphic for colour of the shell's
 apex, determined by a pair of alleles at a locus linked to the banding
 locus. Apex colour is epistatic to shell banding, such that banded snails
 with a dark apex have darker bands. Annual censuses over 22 years across
 an ecotone between a sheltered Acacia thicket and open dune vegetation
 showed a persistent association of both EUB shells and pale apex with the
 Open habitat. The parallel variation was due partly to strong phenotypic
 disequilibrium, as the combination of EUB with dark apex was rare.
 Nevertheless, in fully banded shells the frequency of pale apex was also
 higher in the Open habitat, confirming independent, parallel associations
 of the two contributors to paleness. Within the Acacia habitat, temporal
 variation of the frequencies of banding morphs was much greater than for
 apex colour, and EUB shells were associated with hotter summers.
 Consistent with its primary effect only on the very small snails, apex
 colour did not vary with summer conditions, but instead, higher
 frequencies of pale apices were associated with sunnier winters. The
 intensity of selection was lower on apex colour than shell banding, due
 partly to the constraint of phenotypic disequilibrium. The shell traits in
 T. pisana are an example of complex responses to climatic variation, in
 which phenotypic disequilibrium constrains evolution of apex colour, but
 separate mechanisms of selection are evident.

title: Data from: High effectiveness of tailored flower strips in reducing pests and crop plant damage

description: Providing key resources to animals may enhance both their biodiversity and
 the ecosystem services they provide. We examined the performance of annual
 flower strips targeted at the promotion of natural pest control in winter
 wheat. Flower strips were experimentally sown along 10 winter wheat fields
 across a gradient of landscape complexity (i.e. proportion non-crop area
 within 750 m around focal fields) and compared with 15 fields with wheat
 control strips. We found strong reductions in cereal leaf beetle (CLB)
 density (larvae: 40%; adults of the second generation: 53%) and plant
 damage caused by CLB (61%) in fields with flower strips compared with
 control fields. Natural enemies of CLB were strongly increased in flower
 strips and in part also in adjacent wheat fields. Flower strip effects on
 natural enemies, pests and crop damage were largely independent of
 landscape complexity (8–75% non-crop area). Our study demonstrates a high
 effectiveness of annual flower strips in promoting pest control, reducing
 CLB pest levels below the economic threshold. Hence, the studied flower
 strip offers a viable alternative to insecticides. This highlights the
 high potential of tailored agri-environment schemes to contribute to
 ecological intensification and may encourage more farmers to adopt such
 schemes.

title: Data from: Clines arc through multivariate morphospace

description: Evolutionary biologists typically represent clines as spatial gradients in
 a univariate character (or a principal-component axis) whose mean changes
 as a function of location along a transect spanning an environmental
 gradient or ecotone. This univariate approach may obscure the multivariate
 nature of phenotypic evolution across a landscape. Clines might instead be
 plotted as a series of vectors in multidimensional morphospace, connecting
 sequential geographic sites. We present a model showing that clines may
 trace nonlinear paths that arc through morphospace rather than elongating
 along a single major trajectory. Arcing clines arise because different
 characters diverge at different rates or locations along a geographic
 transect. We empirically confirm that some clines arc through morphospace,
 using morphological data from threespine stickleback sampled along eight
 independent transects from lakes down their respective outlet streams. In
 all eight clines, successive vectors of lake-stream divergence fluctuate
 in direction and magnitude in trait space, rather than pointing along a
 single phenotypic axis. Most clines exhibit surprisingly irregular
 directions of divergence as one moves downstream, although a few clines
 exhibit more directional arcs through morphospace. Our results highlight
 the multivariate complexity of clines that cannot be captured with the
 traditional graphical framework. We discuss hypotheses regarding the
 causes, and implications, of such arcing multivariate clines.

title: Data from: Food-limited mothers favor offspring quality over offspring number: a principal components approach

description: Mothers are expected to balance the tradeoff between the number and
 quality of offspring, and many theoretical studies describe how the
 maternal environment might influence the evolution of the number-quality
 tradeoff. However, few empirical studies attempt to test these theories
 (and their assumptions) by measuring the fitness consequences of variation
 in investment per offspring. Part of the problem is that measuring
 offspring fitness is difficult, which frequently leads experimenters to
 measure several proxies of offspring fitness in place of a comprehensive
 fitness assay. This strategy tends to result in multiple univariate
 analyses that involve different offspring fitness proxies, and these tests
 can have low power and may produce conflicting conclusions. Here, we
 demonstrate the benefits of integrating maternal fecundity and proxies of
 offspring size and fitness into multivariate analyses to elucidate
 variation in reproductive allocation strategies. In a 2×2 factorial
 experiment, we manipulated the quality of maternal environment (food
 availability) throughout early and late adulthood (acute and chronic
 exposure to the maternal environment) in a field cricket. We developed a
 multivariate index of reproductive allocation by incorporating maternal
 fecundity and the performance of offspring in low- and high-food
 environments into a principle components analysis. This index of
 reproductive allocation indicated that females decreased fecundity and
 increased offspring quality after chronic exposure to low-food
 environments, thereby providing evidence of adaptive plasticity in
 investment per offspring. In contrast, few treatment effects were observed
 using univariate analyses. The present study demonstrates that
 multivariate analysis can increase our ability to assess the adaptive
 significance of reproductive strategies, particularly in situations when
 offspring size and fitness are difficult to measure with accuracy. Such an
 approach might ultimately help assess the adaptive significance of
 reproductive allocation across a wider range of taxa, thereby providing
 broader insight into the evolution of reproductive strategies.

title: Data from: Seasonal change in trophic niche of adfluvial arctic grayling (Thymallus arcticus) and coexisting fishes in a high-elevation lake system

description: Introduction of non-native species is a leading threat to global aquatic
 biodiversity. Competition between native and non-native species is often
 influenced by changes in food availability or suitable habitat conditions.
 We investigated diet breadth and degree of trophic niche overlap for a
 fish assemblage of native and non-native species inhabiting a shallow,
 high elevation lake system. This assemblage includes one of the last
 remaining post-glacial endemic populations of adfluvial Arctic grayling
 (Thymallus arcticus) in the contiguous United States. We examined gut
 contents and stable isotope values of fish taxa in fall and spring to
 assess both short- (within season) and long-term (between season) changes
 in trophic niches. We incorporated these data into a secondary isotopic
 analysis using a Bayesian statistical framework to estimate long-term
 trophic niche. Our data suggest that in this system, Arctic grayling share
 both a short- and long-term common food base with non-native trout of
 cutthroat x rainbow hybrid species (Oncorhynchus clarkia bouvieri x
 Oncorhynchus mykiss) and brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis). In addition,
 trophic niche overlap among Arctic grayling, hybrid trout, and brook trout
 appeared to be stronger during spring. In contrast, the native species of
 Arctic grayling, burbot (Lota lota), and suckers (Catostomus spp.) largely
 consumed different prey items. Our results suggest strong seasonal
 differences in trophic niche overlap among non-native trout and Arctic
 grayling, with a potential for greatest competition for food during
 spring. We suggest that conservation of endemic Arctic grayling in
 high-elevation lakes will require recognition of the potential for
 coexisting non-native taxa to impede well-intentioned recovery efforts.

title: Data from: Cross-modal recognition of familiar conspecifics in goats

description: When identifying other individuals, animals may match current cues with
 stored information about that individual from the same sensory modality.
 Animals may also be able to combine current information with previously
 acquired information from other sensory modalities, indicating that they
 possess complex cognitive templates of individuals that are independent of
 modality. We investigated whether goats (Capra hircus) possess cross-modal
 representations (auditory–visual) of conspecifics. We presented subjects
 with recorded conspecific calls broadcast equidistant between two
 individuals, one of which was the caller. We found that, when presented
 with a stablemate and another herd member, goats looked towards the caller
 sooner and for longer than the non-caller, regardless of caller identity.
 By contrast, when choosing between two herd members, other than their
 stablemate, goats did not show a preference to look towards the caller.
 Goats show cross-modal recognition of close social partners, but not of
 less familiar herd members. Goats may employ inferential reasoning when
 identifying conspecifics, potentially facilitating individual
 identification based on incomplete information. Understanding the
 prevalence of cross-modal recognition and the degree to which different
 sensory modalities are integrated provides insight into how animals learn
 about other individuals, and the evolution of animal communication.

title: Data from: No correlation between multi-locus heterozygosity and fitness in the common buzzard despite heterozygote advantage for plumage colour

description: Correlations between heterozygosity and fitness are frequently found but
 rarely well understood. Fitness can be affected by single loci of large
 effect which correlate with neutral markers via linkage disequilibrium, or
 as a result of variation in genome-wide heterozygosity following
 inbreeding. We explored these alternatives in the common buzzard, a raptor
 species in which three colour morphs differ in their lifetime reproductive
 success. Using 18 polymorphic microsatellite loci, we evaluated potential
 genetic differences among the morphs which may lead to subpopulation
 structuring and tested for correlations between three fitness-related
 traits and heterozygosity, both genome wide and at each locus separately.
 Despite their assortative mating pattern, the buzzard morphs were found to
 be genetically undifferentiated. Multilocus heterozygosity was only found
 to be correlated with a single fitness-related trait, infection with the
 blood parasite, Leucocytozoon buteonis, and this was via interactions with
 vole abundance and age. One locus also showed a significant relationship
 with blood parasite infection and ectoparasite infestation. The vicinity
 of this locus contains two genes, one of which is potentially implicated
 in the immune system of birds. We conclude that genome-wide heterozygosity
 is unlikely to be a major determinant of parasite burden and body
 condition in the polymorphic common buzzard.

title: Data from: The MC1R and ASIP coat color loci may impact behavior in the horse

description: Shared signaling pathways utilized by melanocytes and neurons result in
 pleiotropic traits of coat color and behavior in many mammalian species.
 For example, in humans polymorphisms at MC1R cause red hair, increased
 heat sensitivity, and lower pain tolerance. In deer mice, rats, and foxes,
 ASIP polymorphisms causing black coat color lead to more docile demeanors
 and reduced activity. Horse (Equus caballus) base coat color is primarily
 determined by polymorphisms at the Melanocortin-1 Receptor (MC1R) and
 Agouti Signaling Protein (ASIP) loci, creating a black, bay, or chestnut
 coat. Our goal was to investigate correlations between genetic loci for
 coat color and temperament traits in the horse. We genotyped a total of
 215 North American Tennessee Walking Horses for the 2 most common alleles
 at the MC1R (E/e) and ASIP (A/a) loci using previously published PCR and
 RFLP methods. The horses had a mean age of 10.5 years and comprised 83
 geldings, 25 stallions, and 107 mares. To assess behavior, we adapted a
 previously published survey for handlers to score horses from 1 to 9 on 20
 questions related to specific aspects of temperament. We utilized
 principle component analysis to combine the individual survey scores into
 4 factors of variation in temperament phenotype. A factor component
 detailing self-reliance correlated with genotypes at the ASIP locus; black
 mares (aa) were more independent than bay mares (A_) (P = 0.0063). These
 findings illuminate a promising and novel animal model for future study of
 neuroendocrine mechanisms in complex behavioral phenotypes.

title: Data from: Audience affects decision-making in a marmoset communication network

description: An audience can have a profound effect on the dynamics of communicative
 interactions. As a result, non-human primates often adjust their social
 decision-making strategies depending on the audience composition at a
 given time. Here we sought to test how the unique vocal behaviour of
 multiple audience members affected decisions to communicate. To address
 this issue, we developed a novel experimental paradigm in which common
 marmosets directly interacted with multiple ‘virtual monkeys’ (VMs), each
 of whom represented an individual marmoset with distinct vocal behaviour.
 This active social signalling paradigm provided subjects an opportunity to
 interact with and learn about the behaviour of each VM in the network and
 apply this knowledge in subsequent communicative decisions. We found that
 subjects' propensity to interact with particular VMs was determined
 by the behaviour of each VM in the audience and suggests that marmoset
 social decision-making strategies are highly adaptive to nuances of the
 immediate communication network.

title: Data from: Differential aging of bite and jump performance in virgin and mated Teleogryllus commodus crickets

description: Evolutionary theories of aging state that the force of natural selection
 declines with age, resulting in trait senescence. However, sexual
 selection theory predicts that costly traits that signal mate value should
 increase in expression as survival prospects decline. Mortality rates and
 fertility tend to show strong signatures of senescence, whereas sexual
 signalling traits increase with age, but how the expression of traits such
 as whole-organism performance measures that are subject to both sexual and
 non-sexual selection should change with age is unclear. We examined the
 effects of both a key life-history event (mating) and diet quality (male
 and female optimal diets) on aging in two whole-organism performance
 traits (bite force and jump take-off velocity) in male and female
 Teleogryllus commodus crickets. We found no evidence for diet effects on
 any of the measured traits. Aging effects were more evident in females
 than in males for both jumping and biting, and constitute a mix of
 senescence and terminal investment patterns depending on sex/mating class.
 Sex and mating therefore have important implications for resource
 allocation to performance traits, and hence for aging of those traits, and
 interactions between these two factors can result in complex changes in
 trait expression over individual lifetimes.
