title: Data from: Genotypic diversity and environmental variability affect the invasibility of experimental plant populations

description: The world is experiencing increasing climatic variability, an ongoing loss
 of biodiversity and a growing spread of invasive species. Previous
 experimental studies demonstrated that the invasibility of plant
 populations is reduced with increasing resident genetic diversity and is
 promoted by environmental fluctuations, but their combined effect has so
 far not been considered. In a growth chamber experiment, we tested whether
 the genotypic diversity of experimental populations of Arabidopsis
 thaliana (1, 3 or 6 genotypes) and temperature fluctuations affect
 population invasion by Senecio vulgaris, and how these factors interact.
 We found that genotypic diversity tended to increase the invasion
 resistance of experimental plant populations in terms of the biomass ratio
 between the species, and that temperature fluctuations strongly favoured
 Arabidopsis (biomass: +49%) over Senecio (–28%). However, there were no
 interactions between environmental fluctuations and genotypic diversity.
 Nevertheless, the magnitude of net diversity effects and transgressive
 overyielding depended on temperature conditions, indicating that increased
 environmental variability can influence diversity mechanisms. Our study
 shows that, although genotypic diversity and environmental variability did
 not interact, these two factors independently affected the invasibility of
 plant populations.

title: Data from: Contrasting plant water-use responses to groundwater depth in coastal dune ecosystems

description: 1.Groundwater lowering can produce dramatic changes in the physiological
 performance and survival of plant species. The impact of decreasing water
 availability due to climate change and anthropogenic groundwater
 extraction on coastal dune ecosystems has become of increasing concern,
 with uncertainties about how vegetation will respond in both the short and
 long terms. 2.We aimed to evaluate the water‐use responses of different
 plant functional types to increasing groundwater table depth and how this
 would affect their physiology in Mediterranean coastal dune systems
 differing in aridity. 3.We modeled water table depth, quantified the
 contribution of different soil layers to plant water through Bayesian
 isotope mixing models, and used a combination of spectral and isotope data
 to characterize plant ecophysiology. We found that increasing depth to
 groundwater triggered water uptake adjustments towards deeper soil layers
 only in the dry season. These adjustments in water sources use were made
 by conifer trees (Pinus pinea, P. pinaster) and hygrophytic shrubs (Erica
 scoparia, Salix repens) but not by the xerophytic shrub Corema album.
 Moreover, we observed a greater use of groundwater under semi‐arid
 conditions. Accompanying the greater use of water from deep soil layers as
 a response to increasing groundwater depth, the semi‐arid dimorphic‐rooted
 conifer tree P. pinea and hygrophytic shrub E. scoparia declined their
 water content (WI), without implications on photosynthetic parameters,
 such as chlorophyll content (CHL), photochemical index (PRI) and δ13C.
 Unexpectedly, under semi‐arid conditions, the shallow‐rooted xerophytic
 shrub C. album, associated with an absence of water‐sources‐use
 adjustments, showed a decline in WI, CHL, and PRI with groundwater table
 lowering. 4.We provide insight into how different species, belonging to
 different functional types, are acclimating to groundwater changes in a
 region experiencing climatic drought and a scarcity in groundwater due to
 anthropogenic exploitation. Greater depth to groundwater combined with
 limited precipitation can have a significant effect on plants’
 water‐sources use and ecophysiology in semi‐arid coastal dune ecosystems.

title: Data from: Is offspring dispersal related to male mating status? An experiment with the facultatively polygynous spotless starling

description: Patterns of natal dispersal are generally sex-biased in vertebrates, i.e.
 female-biased in birds and male-biased in mammals. Interphyletic
 comparisons in mammals suggest that male-biased dispersal occurs in
 polygynous and promiscuous species where local mate competition among
 males exceeds local resource competition among females. However, few
 studies have analysed sex-biased patterns of dispersal at the individual
 level, and facultatively polygynous species might offer this opportunity.
 In the spotless starling, polygynous males exhibit their mating status
 during courtship carrying higher amounts of green plants to nests than
 monogamous males. We experimentally incorporated green plants to nests
 during four years to analyse long-term consequences on breeding success
 and offspring recruitment rates. We unexpectedly found that experimental
 sons recruited farther than experimental daughters, while control
 daughters recruited farther than control sons. A similar pattern was found
 using observational information from eight years. We discuss this result
 in the context of local competition hypothesis and speculate that sons
 dispersed farther from nests controlled by polygynous males to avoid
 competition with relatives. The amount of green plants in nests affects
 female perception of male attractiveness and degree of polygyny, although
 little is known about proximate mechanisms linking this process with the
 offspring dispersal behaviour. Our results support the idea that
 male-biased dispersal is related to polygyny in a facultatively polygynous
 bird.

title: Data from: Critical disease windows shaped by stress exposure alter allocation trade-offs between development and immunity

description: 1. Ubiquitous environmental stressors are often thought to alter animal
 susceptibility to pathogens and contribute to disease emergence. However,
 duration of exposure to a stressor is likely critical, because while
 chronic stress is often immunosuppressive, acute stress can temporarily
 enhance immune function. Furthermore, host susceptibility to stress and
 disease often varies with ontogeny; increasing during critical
 developmental windows. How the duration and timing of exposure to
 stressors interact to shape critical windows and influence disease
 processes is not well tested. 2. We used ranaviruses and larval amphibians
 as a model system to investigate how physiological stress and pathogenic
 infection shape development and disease dynamics in vertebrates. Based on
 a resource allocation model, we designed experiments to test how exposure
 to stressors may induce resource trade-offs that shape critical windows
 and disease processes because the neuroendocrine stress axis coordinates
 developmental remodeling, immune function, and energy allocation in larval
 amphibians. 3. We used wood frog larvae (Lithobates sylvaticus) to
 investigate how chronic and acute exposure to corticosterone, the dominant
 amphibian glucocorticoid hormone, mediates development and immune function
 via splenocyte immunohistochemistry analysis in association with ranavirus
 infection. 4. Corticosterone treatments affected immune function, as both
 chronic and acute exposure suppressed splenocyte proliferation, although
 viral replication rate increased only in the chronic corticosterone
 treatment. 5. Time to metamorphosis and survival depended on both
 corticosterone treatment and infection status. In the control and chronic
 corticosterone treatments, ranavirus infection decreased survival and
 delayed metamorphosis, although chronic corticosterone exposure
 accelerated time to metamorphosis in uninfected larvae. Acute
 corticosterone exposure accelerated metamorphosis increased survival in
 infected larvae. 6. Interactions between stress exposure (via
 glucocorticoid actions) and infection impose resource trade-offs that
 shape optimal allocation between development and somatic function. As a
 result, critical disease windows are likely shaped by stress exposure
 because any conditions that induce changes in differentiation rates will
 alter the duration and susceptibility of organisms to stressors or
 disease.

title: Data from: New species of Arthroleptis (Anura: Arthroleptidae) from Ngozi Crater in the Poroto Mountains of southwestern Tanzania

description: A new species of squeaker frog (Arthroleptis) is described from Ngozi
 Crater in the Poroto Mountains of southwestern Tanzania. The holotype, and
 only specimen, was collected 80 years ago but remained undescribed because
 of past taxonomic confusion relating to large-bodied species of
 Arthroleptis from eastern Africa. Morphological study, including
 multivariate analysis of measurement data, indicates that this new species
 is distinguishable from other species of Arthroleptis, including
 large-bodied species such as Arthroleptis adolfifriederici, Arthroleptis
 affinis, Arthroleptis nikeae, Arthroleptis nguruensis, and Arthroleptis
 tanneri. The new species differs from other described species of
 Arthroleptis by the combination of its large body size, relatively long
 toes, and relatively small tympanum. The description of this new species
 further highlights the biological diversity of the Southern Rift
 Mountains.

title: Data from: Microbial mitigation-exacerbation continuum: a novel framework for microbiome effects on hosts in the face of stress

description: A key challenge to understanding microbiomes and their role in ecological
 processes is contextualizing their effects on host organisms, particularly
 when faced with environmental stress. One influential theory, the Stress
 Gradient Hypothesis, might predict that the frequency of positive
 interactions increases with stressful conditions such that microbial taxa
 would mitigate harmful effects on host performance. Yet, equally plausible
 is that microbial taxa could exacerbate these effects. Here, we introduce
 the "Mitigation-Exacerbation Continuum" as a novel framework to
 conceptualize microbial mediation of stress. We (1) use this continuum to
 quantify microbial mediation of stress for six plant species, and (2) test
 the association between these continuum values and natural species
 abundance. We factorially manipulated a common stress (allelopathy) and
 the presence of soil microbes to quantify microbial effects in benign and
 stressed environments for two critical early life-history metrics, seed
 germination and seedling biomass. Although we found evidence of both
 mitigation and exacerbation among the six species, exacerbation was more
 common. Across species, the degree of microbial-mediated effects on
 germination explained &gt;80% of the variation of natural field
 abundances. Our results suggest a critical role of soil microbes in
 mediating plant stress responses, and a potential microbial mechanism
 underlying species abundance.

title: Data from: Fearlessness towards extirpated large carnivores may exacerbate the impacts of naïve mesocarnivores

description: By suppressing mesocarnivore foraging, the fear large carnivores inspire
 can be critical to mitigating mesocarnivore impacts. Where large
 carnivores have declined, mesocarnivores may quantitatively increase
 foraging, commensurate with reductions in fear. The extirpation of large
 carnivores may further exacerbate mesocarnivore impacts by causing
 qualitative changes in mesocarnivore behavior. Error management theory
 suggests that, where predators are present, prey should be biased towards
 over-responsiveness to predator cues, abandoning foraging in response to
 both predator cues and benign stimuli mistaken for predator cues
 (false-positives). Where predators are absent, prey may avoid these
 foraging costs by becoming unresponsive (naïve) to both predator cues and
 false-positives. If naiveté occurs in mesocarnivores where large
 carnivores have been extirpated, it could substantively exacerbate their
 impacts, as “fearless” mesocarnivores may engage in virtually unrestricted
 foraging. We tested the naiveté of raccoons (Procyon lotor) to extirpated
 large carnivores in the context of a larger experiment demonstrating that
 fear of large carnivores can mediate mesocarnivore impacts. Raccoon
 responsiveness to playbacks of their extirpated large carnivore predators
 (cougars, Puma concolor; bears, Ursus americanus) was significantly less
 than to the only extant large carnivore predator (dogs), and was no
 greater than to non-predators (“seals”; Phoca vitulina, Eumetopias
 jubatus). Raccoons failed to recognize their now extirpated predators as
 threatening, spending as much time foraging as when hearing non-predators,
 which we estimate has substantive impacts, based on results from the
 larger experiment. We discuss the potentially powerful role of
 “fearlessness” in exacerbating mesocarnivore impacts in systems where
 large carnivores have been lost.

title: Data from: Host diversity limits the evolution of parasite local adaptation

description: Specificity in the interactions between hosts and their parasites can lead
 to local adaptation. However, the degree of local adaptation is predicted
 to depend upon the diversity of resistance alleles within the host
 population; increasing host diversity should decrease mean parasite
 infectivity and hence reduce local adaptation. In this study, we
 empirically test this prediction using the highly specific interactions
 between bacteria with clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic
 repeats/CRISPR-associated (CRISPR/Cas) immunity and their bacteriophage.
 Bacteria acquire immunity to phage by incorporating a phage-derived spacer
 sequence into CRISPR loci on the host genome, and phage can escape the
 CRISPR-mediated immunity of a specific clone by mutating the targeted
 sequence. We found that high levels of CRISPR allele diversity that
 naturally evolve in host populations exposed to phage (because each
 bacterial clone captures a unique phage-derived sequence) prevents phage
 from becoming locally adapted. By manipulating the number of CRISPR
 alleles in the host population, we show that phage can become locally
 adapted to their bacterial hosts but only when CRISPR allele diversity is
 low.

 adaptation on host populations of increasing genetic
 diversityThis file contains the
 raw bacteria and phage counts and average local adaptation scores for
 5-day coevolution experiments in which phage were added to populations of
 Pseudomonas aeruginosa with increasing levels of CRISPR spacer diversity.
 The goal was to measure parasite (phage) location adaptation on host

 alleles (CRISPR spacers) to measure the effects of host diversity on

title: Data from: Crossing fitness valleys: empirical estimation of adaptive landscape associated with polymorphic mimicry

description: Characterising the fitness landscapes associated with polymorphic adaptive
 traits enables the investigation of the mechanisms allowing transitions
 between fitness peaks. Here, we explore how natural selection can promote
 genetic mechanisms preventing heterozygous phenotypes from falling into
 non-adaptive valleys. Polymorphic mimicry is an ideal system to
 investigate such fitness landscapes, because the direction of selection
 acting on complex mimetic colour patterns can be predicted by the local
 mimetic community composition. Using more than 5,000 artificial
 butterflies displaying colour patterns exhibited by the polymorphic
 Müllerian mimic Heliconius numata, we directly tested the role of wild
 predators in shaping fitness landscapes. We compared predation rates on
 mimetic phenotypes (homozygotes at the supergene controlling colour
 pattern), intermediate phenotypes (heterozygotes), exotic morphs (absent
 from the local community) and palatable cryptic phenotypes. Exotic morphs
 were significantly more attacked than local morphs, highlighting
 predators’ discriminatory capacities. Overall, intermediates were attacked
 twice as much as local homozygotes, suggesting the existence of deep
 fitness valleys promoting strict dominance and reduced recombination
 between supergene alleles. By including information on predators’ colour
 perception, we also showed that protection on intermediates strongly
 depends on their phenotypic similarity to homozygous phenotypes and that
 ridges exist between similar phenotypes, which may facilitate divergence
 in colour patterns.

title: Data from: On the scent of standing variation for speciation: behavioral evidence for native sympatric host races of Rhagoletic pomonella (Diptera: Tephritidae) in the southern United States

description: Standing variation can be critical for speciation. Here, we investigate
 the origins of fruit odor discrimination for Rhagoletis pomonella
 underlying the fly’s sympatric shift in the northeastern U.S. from downy
 hawthorn (Crataegus mollis) to apple (Malus domestica). Because R.
 pomonella mate on host fruit, preferences for natal fruit volatiles
 generate prezygotic isolation. Apples emit volatiles that appear to be
 missing from gas chromatography/electroantennographic detection profiles
 for flies infesting downy hawthorns, raising the question of how R.
 pomonella evolved a preference for apple. In the southern U.S., R.
 pomonella attacks several native hawthorns. Behaviorally active volatile
 blends for R. pomonella infesting southern hawthorns contain the missing
 apple volatiles, potentially explaining why downy hawthorn flies could
 have evolved to be sensitive to a blend of apple volatiles. Flight tunnel
 assays imply that southern hawthorn populations were not the antecedent of
 a preassembled apple race, as southern flies were not attracted to the
 apple volatile blend. Instead, behavioral evidence was found for southern
 host races on native hawthorns, complementing the story of the historical
 sympatric shift to introduced apple in the North and illustrating how R.
 pomonella may evolve novel combinations of agonist and antagonist
 responses to volatiles to utilize new fruit resources.
