title: Data from: Effects of native bryophytes on exotic grass invasion across an environmental gradient

description: Understanding the role that native biodiversity plays in controlling
 exotic species invasion is a critical goal in ecology. In terrestrial
 plant communities, most research has focused on the effects of native
 vascular plants on invasion by exotic vascular plants. However, in many
 ecosystems, native bryophytes and other non-vascular plants are common and
 can affect the establishment, survival and growth of vascular plants. A
 more complete picture of how native biodiversity affects exotic plant
 invasion, demands that more studies measure the effects of native
 bryophytes on exotic vascular plants. Moreover, there is growing
 realization that the effects of native species on invaders can range from
 negative to positive and that a complete picture of interactions between
 native and exotic plants requires measuring interactions in multiple
 environments. We used both observational and experimental studies to
 quantify the effects of native moss on two exotic annual grass species
 along a 200-m environmental gradient in a coastal dune in northern
 California. We found the effects of bryophytes to be species-specific and
 to vary with environmental context. Bryophytes facilitated the survival of
 one exotic grass species at both ends of the environmental gradient. For
 the other exotic grass species, bryophytes reduced survival at one end of
 the environmental gradient and had no effect at the other end. Our
 findings provide an important test of the effects of native bryophytes on
 exotic vascular plant invasion, and importantly show that these effects
 can vary dramatically even across local environmental gradients.

title: Data from: Host traits and competitive ability jointly structure disease dynamics and community assembly

description: 1. Parasitism and competition are both ubiquitous interactions in
 ecological communities. The ability of host species to interact directly
 via competition and indirectly through shared parasites suggests that host
 traits related to competition and parasitism are likely important in
 structuring communities and disease dynamics. Specifically, those host
 traits affecting competition and those mediating parasitism are often
 correlated either because of trade-offs (in resource acquisition or
 resource allocation) or condition-dependence; yet the consequences of
 these trait relationships for community and epidemiological dynamics are
 poorly understood. 2. We conducted a literature review of parasite-related
 host traits – competitive ability relationships. We found that
 transmission – competitive ability relationships were most often reported,
 and that superior competitors exhibited elevated transmission relative to
 their less-competitive counterparts in nearly 80% of the cases. We also
 found a significant number of virulence – competitive ability and parasite
 shedding – competitive ability relationships. 3. We investigated these
 links by altering the relationship between host competitive ability and
 three parasite-related traits (transmission, virulence, and parasite
 shedding rates) in a simple model, incorporating competitive asymmetries
 in a multi-host community. 4. We show that these relationships can lead to
 a range of different communities. For example, depending on the strength
 and direction of these distinct trait relationships, we observed
 communities with anywhere from high parasite prevalence to complete
 parasite extinction, and either one, two, or the maximum of three host
 species coexisting. 5. Our results suggest that parasite – competitive
 ability relationships may be common in nature, that further integration of
 these relationships can produce novel and unexpected community and disease
 dynamics, and that generalizations may allow for the prediction of how
 parasitism and competition jointly structure disease and diversity in
 natural communities.

title: Data from: Do latex and resin canals spur plant diversification? re-examining a classic example of escape and radiate coevolution

description: (1) The association between increased lineage diversification rates and
 the evolution of latex and resin canals is widely cited as a paradigmatic
 example of Ehrlich and Raven’s “escape-and-radiate” hypothesis of
 coevolution. However, it has been over a quarter-century since the
 original study, and updates to phylogenetic comparative methods, plant
 molecular systematics, and phenotypic data warrant a reassessment of this
 classic finding. (2) We gathered data on latex and resin canals across
 over 300 families and 1100 genera of vascular plants and conducted a
 multi-scale test of the association between these traits and lineage
 diversification rates. At a broad scale (across clades), we used
 sister-clade comparisons to test whether 28 canal-bearing clades had
 higher net diversification rates than their canal-lacking sister clades.
 At a finer scale (within clades), we used ancestral state reconstructions
 and phylogenetic models of lineage diversification rates to examine the
 relationship between trait evolution and the timing of diversification
 rate shifts in two better-characterized clades – Araceae and Papaveraceae.
 (3) At both scales of our analyses we found poor support for the predicted
 relationship between diversification and the evolution of latex and resin
 canals. Follow-up analyses clarified that the qualitative change between
 our results and those of the Farrell et al.’s classic study is not the
 result of different phylogenetic comparative methods. Instead, the
 differences are attributable to updates to plant systematic hypotheses and
 new data on laticifers and resin canal presence/absence. (4) Synthesis:
 Our updated study reveals that there is no longer strong evidence for
 latex or resin canals as general, consistently replicable drivers of
 species diversity across plants. However, we cannot rule out a
 relationship in all groups. We therefore argue that theoretical and
 empirical work aimed at understanding ecological factors that condition
 “escape-and-radiate” dynamics will allow for more nuanced tests of the
 hypothesis in the future.

title: UROSURGICAL MANAGEMENT OF CHRONIC SUBDURAL HEMATOMAS IN CHILDREN

description: Chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) is a relatively rare but important neurosurgical condition in the pediatric population, most often caused by head trauma, cerebrospinal fluid shunting, blood coagulation disorders, or spontaneous bleeding into the subdural space. Although cSDH is much more common in adults, children may develop chronic collections of blood between the dura mater and arachnoid membrane due to a combination of anatomical vulnerability and pathological predispositions. Pediatric cSDH may present with subtlesymptoms such as headache, irritability, vomiting, changes in behavior, or neurologic deficits, and diagnosis often relies on neuroimaging including computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. The natural history and optimal management strategies in children are less well defined than in adults, but neurosurgical intervention — most commonly burr hole evacuation with subdural drainage — is indicated for symptomatic or large collections. Recent literature has also explored adjunctive approaches such as middle meningeal artery embolization, though high-quality evidence in children remains limited. Early recognition, careful evaluation of underlying causes, and tailored surgical care are essential for good outcomes.

title: Data from: Aβ42 fibril formation from predominantly oligomeric samples suggests a link between oligomer heterogeneity and fibril polymorphism

description: Aβ oligomers play a central role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s
 disease. Oligomers of different sizes, morphology, and structures have
 been reported in both in vivo and in vitro studies, but there is a general
 lack of understanding about where to place these oligomers in the overall
 process of Aβ aggregation and fibrillization. Here we show that Aβ42
 spontaneously forms oligomers with a wide range of sizes in the same
 sample. These Aβ42 samples contain predominantly oligomers, and they
 quickly form fibrils upon incubation at 37°C. When fractionated using
 ultrafiltration filters, the samples enriched with smaller oligomers form
 fibrils at a faster rate than the samples enriched with larger oligomers,
 with both a shorter lag time and faster fibril growth rate. This
 observation is independent of Aβ42 batches and HFIP treatment.
 Furthermore, the fibrils formed by the samples enriched with larger
 oligomers are more readily solubilized by EGCG, a main catechin component
 of green tea. These results suggest that the fibrils formed by larger
 oligomers may adopt a different structure from fibrils formed by smaller
 oligomers, pointing to a link between oligomer heterogeneity and fibril
 polymorphism.

title: Data from: Size-selective harvesting fosters adaptations in mating behavior and reproductive allocation, affecting sexual selection in fish

description: 1. The role of sexual selection in the context of harvest-induced
 evolution is poorly understood. However, elevated and trait-selective
 harvesting of wild populations may change sexually-selected traits, which
 in turn can affect mate choice and reproduction. 2. We experimentally
 evaluated the potential for fisheries-induced evolution of mating behavior
 and reproductive allocation in fish. 3. We used a unique experimental
 system of zebrafish (Danio rerio) lines exposed to large, small, or random
 (i.e. control) size-selective mortality. The large-harvested line
 represented a treatment simulating the typical case in fisheries where the
 largest individuals are preferentially harvested. We used a full factorial
 design of spawning trials with size-matched individuals to control for the
 systematic impact of body size during reproduction, thereby singling out
 possible changes in mating behaviour and reproductive allocation. 4. Both
 small and large size-selective mortality left a legacy on male mating
 behavior by elevating intersexual aggression. However, there was no
 evidence for line-assortative reproductive allocation. Females of all
 lines preferentially allocated eggs to the generally less aggressive males
 of the random-harvested control line. Females of the large-harvested line
 showed enhanced reproductive performance, and males of the large-harvested
 line had the highest egg fertilization rate among all males. These
 findings can be explained as an evolutionary adaptation by which
 individuals of the large-harvested line display an enhanced reproductive
 performance early in life to offset the increased probability of adult
 mortality due to harvest. 5. Our results suggest that the large-harvested
 line evolved behaviorally-mediated reproductive adaptations that could
 increase the rate of recovery when populations adapted to high fishing
 pressure come into secondary contact with other populations.

title: Data from: Fruit consumption in migratory passerines is limited by water ingestion rather than by body water balance

description: Many insectivorous passerines become frugivorous during migration. Because
 water may facilitate the digestion of dry fruits, some passerines may
 benefit from staging in stopover sites that offer access to drinking
 water. In autumn, water consumption by Blackcaps (Sylvia atricapilla)
 staging in Israel was found to induce a shift from insectivory to
 frugivory. We tested two alternative hypotheses concerning the mechanism
 facilitating consumption of the relatively dry fruits which are common in
 this region: (1) Water intake facilitates the passage of fruits within the
 digestive tract when these two resources are simultaneously ingested, and
 (2) improved body water balance allows the consumption and ingestion of
 large amounts of dry fruits. Blackcaps were subjected to five treatments
 that included temporal separation of water and fruit consumption, as well
 as subcutaneous water injection to maintain balanced body water in
 water-deprived birds. Fruit consumption rate was measured daily. We found
 that only simultaneous provisioning of water and fruit significantly
 increased fruit consumption rate, implying that drinking water directly
 improves fruit digestion within the digestive system. Furthermore, the
 fuel deposition rate increased with increased fruit consumption rate.
 These results emphasize the importance of water availability for the
 ecology and conservation of migrating passerines.

title: Data from: Adaptive alignment of plasticity with genetic variation and selection

description: Theoretical research has outlined how selection may shape both genetic
 variation and the expression of phenotypic plasticity in multivariate
 trait space. Specifically, research regarding the evolution of patterns of
 additive genetic variances and covariances (summarized in matrix form as
 G) and complimentary research into how selection may shape adaptive
 plasticity lead to the general prediction that G, plasticity, and
 selection surfaces are all expected to align with each other. However,
 less well discussed is how this prediction might be assessed and how the
 modelled theoretical processes are expected to manifest in actual
 populations. Here, we discuss the theoretical foundations of the
 overarching prediction of alignment, what alignment mathematically means,
 how researchers might test for alignment, and important caveats to this
 testing. The most important caveat concerns the fact that, for plasticity,
 the prediction of alignment only applies to cases where plasticity is
 adaptive, whereas organisms express considerable plasticity that may be
 neutral or even maladaptive. We detail the ramifications of these
 alternative expressions of plasticity vis-à-vis predictions of alignment.
 Finally, we briefly highlight some important interpretations of deviations
 from the prediction of alignment and what alignment might mean for
 populations experiencing environmental and selective changes.

title: Data from: How a measure of tree structural complexity relates to architectural benefit-to-cost ratio, light availability and growth of trees

description: Aboveground tree architecture is neither fully deterministic nor random.
 It is likely the result of mechanisms that balance static requirements and
 light-capturing efficiency. Here we used terrestrial laser scanning data
 to investigate the relationship between tree architecture, here addressed
 using the box-dimension (Db), and the architectural benefit-to-cost ratio,
 the light availability and the growth of trees. We detected a clear
 relationship between Db and the benefit-to-cost ratio for the tested three
 temperate forest tree species (Fagus sylvatica L., Fraxinus excelsior L.
 and Acer pseudoplatanus L.). In addition, we could also show that Db is
 positively related to the growth performance of several tropical tree
 species. Finally, we observed a negative relationship between the strength
 of competition enforced on red oak (Quercus rubra L.) trees and their Db.
 We therefore argue that Db is a meaningful and integrative measure that
 describes the structural complexity of the aboveground compartments of a
 plant as well as its relation to structural efficiency (benefit-to-cost
 ratio), productivity and growing conditions (competition or availability
 of light).

title: Data from: A mirage of cryptic species: genomics uncover striking mito-nuclear discordance in the butterfly Thymelicus sylvestris

description: Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequencing has led to an unprecedented rise in
 the identification of cryptic species. However, it is widely acknowledged
 that nuclear DNA (nuDNA) sequence data are also necessary to properly
 define species boundaries. Next generation sequencing techniques provide a
 wealth of nuclear genomic data, which can be used to ascertain both the
 evolutionary history and taxonomic status of putative cryptic species.
 Here, we focus on the intriguing case of the butterfly Thymelicus
 sylvestris (Lepidoptera: Hesperiidae). We identified six deeply diverged
 mitochondrial lineages; three distributed all across Europe and found in
 sympatry, suggesting a potential case of cryptic species. We then
 sequenced these six lineages using double-digest restriction-site
 associated DNA sequencing (ddRADseq). Nuclear genomic loci contradicted
 mtDNA patterns and genotypes generally clustered according to geography,
 i.e., a pattern expected under the assumption of postglacial
 recolonization from different refugia. Further analyses indicated that
 this strong mtDNA/nuDNA discrepancy cannot be explained by incomplete
 lineage sorting, sex-biased asymmetries, NUMTs, natural selection,
 introgression or Wolbachia-mediated genetic sweeps. We suggest that this
 mito-nuclear discordance was caused by long periods of geographic
 isolation followed by range expansions, homogenizing the nuclear but not
 the mitochondrial genome. These results highlight T. sylvestris as a
 potential case of multiple despeciation and/or lineage fusion events. We
 finally argue, since mtDNA and nuDNA do not necessarily follow the same
 mechanisms of evolution, their respective evolutionary history reflects
 complementary aspects of past demographic and biogeographic events.
