title: Data from: Hyaluronan and N-ERC/mesothelin as key biomarkers in a specific two-step model to predict pleural malignant mesothelioma

description: Purpose: Diagnosis of malignant mesothelioma is challenging. The first
 available diagnostic material is often an effusion and biochemical
 analysis of soluble markers may provide additional diagnostic information.
 This study aimed to establish a predictive model using biomarkers from
 pleural effusions, to allow early and accurate diagnosis. Patients and
 Methods: Effusions were collected prospectively from 190 consecutive
 patients at a regional referral centre. Hyaluronan, N-ERC/mesothelin,
 C-ERC/mesothelin, osteopontin, syndecan-1, syndecan-2, and thioredoxin
 were measured using ELISA and HPLC. A predictive model was generated and
 validated using a second prospective set of 375 effusions collected
 consecutively at a different referral centre. Results: Biochemical markers
 significantly associated with mesothelioma were hyaluronan (odds ratio,
 95% CI: 8.82, 4.82–20.39), N-ERC/mesothelin (4.81, 3.19–7.93),
 CERC/mesothelin (3.58, 2.43–5.59) and syndecan-1 (1.34, 1.03–1.77). A
 two-step model using hyaluronan and N-ERC/mesothelin, and combining a
 threshold decision rule with logistic regression, yielded good
 discrimination with an area under the ROC curve of 0.99 (95% CI:
 0.97–1.00) in the model generation dataset and 0.83 (0.74–0.91) in the
 validation dataset, respectively. Conclusions: A two-step model using
 hyaluronan and N-ERC/mesothelin predicts mesothelioma with high
 specificity. This method can be performed on the first available effusion
 and could be a useful adjunct to the morphological diagnosis of
 mesothelioma.

title: Data from: Tropical dry forest trees and lianas differ in leaf economic spectrum traits but have overlapping water-use strategies

description: Tree species in tropical dry forests employ a wide range of strategies to
 cope with seasonal drought, including regulation of hydraulic function.
 However, it is uncertain if co-occurring lianas also possess a diversity
 of strategies. For a taxonomically diverse group of 14 tree and 7 liana
 species, we measured morphological and hydraulic functional traits during
 an unusual drought and under non-drought conditions to determine (i) if
 trees have different water-use strategies than lianas and (ii) if
 relationships among these traits can be used to better understand how tree
 and liana species regulate diurnal leaf water potential (Ψdiurnal). In
 this Costa Rican tropical dry forest, lianas and trees had overlapping
 water-use strategies, but differed in many leaf economic spectrum traits.
 Specifically, we found that both lianas and trees employed a diversity of
 Ψdiurnal regulation strategies, which did not differ statistically.
 However, lianas and trees did significantly differ in terms of certain
 traits including leaf area, specific leaf area, petiole length, wood
 vessel diameter and xylem vessel density. All liana and tree species we
 measured fell along a con- tinuum of isohydric (partial) to anisohydric
 (strict or extreme) Ψdiurnal regulation strategies, and leaf area, petiole
 length, stomatal conductance and wood vessel diameter correlated with
 these strategies. These findings contribute to a trait-based understanding
 of how plants regulate Ψdiurnal under both drought stress and sufficient
 water availability, and underscore that lianas and trees employ a
 similarly wide range of Ψdiurnal regulation strategies, despite having
 vastly different growth forms.

title: Data from: On the fate of seasonally plastic traits in a rainforest butterfly under relaxed selection

description: Many organisms display phenotypic plasticity as adaptation to seasonal
 environmental fluctuations. Often, such seasonal responses entails
 plasticity of a whole suite of morphological and life-history traits that
 together contribute to the adaptive phenotypes in the alternative
 environments. While phenotypic plasticity in general is a well-studied
 phenomenon, little is known about the evolutionary fate of plastic
 responses if natural selection on plasticity is relaxed. Here, we study
 whether the presumed ancestral seasonal plasticity of the rainforest
 butterfly Bicyclus sanaos (Fabricius, 1793) is still retained despite the
 fact that this species inhabits an environmentally stable habitat. Being
 exposed to an atypical range of temperatures in the laboratory revealed
 hidden reaction norms for several traits, including wing pattern. In
 contrast, reproductive body allocation has lost the plastic response. In
 the savannah butterfly, B. anynana (Butler, 1879), these traits show
 strong developmental plasticity as an adaptation to the contrasting
 environments of its seasonal habitat and they are coordinated via a common
 developmental hormonal system. Our results for B. sanaos indicate that
 such integration of plastic traits – as a result of past selection on
 expressing a coordinated environmental response – can be broken when the
 optimal reaction norms for those traits diverge in a new environment.

title: Data from: The significance of past interdrainage connectivity for studies of diversity, distribution and movement of freshwater-limited taxa within a catchment

description: Aim: Historical connectivity between drainages may represent an
 underappreciated contributor to the biodiversity within a catchment.
 First, we tested whether an isolated population of freshwater-limited
 galaxiids represents a contribution by past interdrainage connectivity to
 this system’s biodiversity, rather than reflecting intracatchment
 dispersal or speciation. Second, we sought to distinguish between possible
 geomorphic processes that could have allowed any past connectivity.
 Location: The Clutha and adjacent Southland region drainages on the South
 Island of New Zealand. Methods: We estimated the phylogeographical
 relationships among 466 cytochrome b sequences from ‘roundhead’ Galaxias
 populations throughout the Southland region and the Clutha drainage, using
 three different methods. Subsequently, possible geomorphic mechanisms of
 interdrainage connectivity were examined concurrently with genetic
 population divergence time estimates obtained by coalescent analysis.
 Results: All samples obtained in the lower Clutha system were genetically
 attributable to G. gollumoides and reflected at least a third, independent
 colonization event from Southland involving this species, rather than
 intradrainage dispersal or speciation by pre-existing Clutha populations.
 Geomorphological inferences and divergence time estimates of less than 7
 ka are consistent with headwater connections across low divides between
 the lower Clutha and the Catlins region of Southland, rather than
 anastomosing of main channels during low sea stands. Main conclusions: The
 observation of at least three interdrainage connectivity events
 influencing the diversity and distribution of G. gollumoides lineages
 within the Clutha system highlights the potential significance of these
 processes as contributors to the magnitude and distribution of
 biodiversity within catchments.

title: Data from: Spatial and temporal aridity gradients provide poor proxies for plant-plant interactions under climate change: a large-scale experiment

description: 1. Plant-plant interactions may critically modify the impact of climate
 change on plant communities. However, the magnitude and even direction of
 potential future interactions remains highly debated, especially for water
 limited ecosystems. Predictions range from increasing facilitation to
 increasing competition with future aridification. 2. The different
 methodologies used for assessing plant-plant interactions under changing
 environmental conditions may affect the outcome but they are not equally
 represented in the literature. Mechanistic experimental manipulations are
 rare compared to correlative approaches that infer future patterns from
 current observations along spatial climatic gradients. 3. Here, we utilize
 a unique climatic gradient in combination with a large-scale, long-term
 experiment to test whether predictions about plant-plant interactions
 yield similar results when using experimental manipulations, spatial
 gradients or temporal variation. We assessed shrub-annual interactions in
 three different sites along a natural rainfall gradient (spatial) during 9
 years of varying rainfall (temporal) and 8 years of dry and wet
 manipulations of ambient rainfall (experimental) that closely mimicked
 regional climate scenarios. 4. The results were fundamentally different
 among all three approaches. Experimental water manipulations hardly
 altered shrub effects on annual plant communities for the assessed fitness
 parameters biomass and survival. Along the spatial gradient, shrub effects
 shifted from clearly negative to mildly facilitative towards drier sites,
 whereas temporal variation showed the opposite trend: more negative shrub
 effects in drier years. 5. Based on our experimental approach, we conclude
 that shrub-annual interaction will remain similar under climate change. In
 contrast, the commonly applied space-for time approach based on spatial
 gradients would have suggested increasing facilitative effects with
 climate change. We discuss potential mechanisms governing the differences
 among the three approaches. 6. Our study highlights the critical
 importance of long-term experimental manipulations for evaluating climate
 change impacts. Correlative approaches, e.g. along spatial or temporal
 gradients, may be misleading and overestimate the response of plant-plant
 interactions to climate change.

title: Data from: Explaining variation in the effect of floral density on pollinator visitation

description: Pollinator responses to floral density have important implications for
 plant biology. In particular, a decline in pollinator visitation at low
 density can cause an Allee effect (a positive relation of fitness to
 density) in the plant population, which heightens that population's
 vulnerability to extinction. Empiricists have reported a variety of
 relations between flower or plant density and pollinator visitation rates.
 Here I develop and test a model that provides explanations for this
 diversity. The model assumes that pollinators distribute themselves
 between a focal patch of flowers and the surrounding environment so as to
 maximize foraging success. The resulting relation of per-flower visitation
 rate to focal patch floral density is non-linear, with positive effects at
 low floral densities and weaker or negative effects at higher densities.
 The relation is influenced by floral density in the surrounding
 environment and traits of both the plants and their pollinators. In a
 field experiment, floral density of Holocarpha virgata ssp. virgata had a
 non-linear effect on per-flower visitation that was largely consistent
 with the model's predictions. By producing testable hypotheses based
 on biologically reasonable assumptions, this model serves as a starting
 point for explaining an important facet of plant-pollinator mutualisms.

title: Data from: Trade-offs between personal immunity and reproduction in the burying beetle, N. vespilloides

description: We know that parental investment and immune investment are costly
 processes, but it is unclear which trait will be prioritized when both may
 be required. Here, we address this question using the burying beetle
 Nicrophorus vespilloides, carrion breeders that exhibit biparental care of
 young. Our results show that immunosuppression occurs during provision of
 parental care. We measured phenoloxidase (PO) on Days 1–8 of the breeding
 bout and results show a clear decrease in PO immediately from presentation
 of the breeding resource onward. Having established baseline immune
 investment during breeding we then manipulated immune investment at
 different times by applying a wounding challenge. Beetles were wounded
 prior to and during the parental care period and reproductive investment
 quantified. Different effects on reproductive output occur depending on
 the timing of wounding. Challenging the immune system with wounding prior
 to breeding does not affect reproductive output and subsequent lifetime
 reproductive success (LRS). LRS is also unaffected by applying an immune
 elicitor prior to breeding, though different arms of the immune system are
 up/downregulated, perhaps indicating a trade-off between cellular and
 humoral immunity. In contrast, wounding during breeding reduces
 reproductive output and to the greatest extent if the challenge is applied
 early in the breeding bout. Despite being immunosuppressed, breeding
 beetles can still respond to wounding by increasing PO, albeit not to
 prebreeding levels. This upregulation of PO during breeding may affect
 parental investment, resulting in a reduction in reproductive output. The
 potential role of juvenile hormone in controlling this trade-off is
 discussed.
