title: Conjunctival and Retinal Images of Healthy Subjects and Subjects with Diabetes

description: This dataset includes conjunctival and retinal images collected from both diabetic and healthy individuals to support research on diabetes-related vascular changes. For each subject, eight conjunctival images (four per eye: looking left, right, up, and down) are provided. Diabetic subjects additionally have corresponding left and right retinal fundus images. Metadata for diabetic participants includes classification into subgroups: diabetes only, diabetes with retinopathy, or diabetes with related complications such as hypertension. A subset of 20 conjunctival images, from subjects with diabetes, has been manually annotated to highlight blood vessels larger than or equal to 40 μm, facilitating the analysis of vascular tortuosity. This dataset enables the development and validation of automated image analysis techniques for early, non-invasive screening of diabetes and diabetic retinopathy through ocular imaging.

title: Data for: Dynamic coastal pelagic habitat drives rapid changes in growth and condition of juvenile sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) during early marine migration

description: &lt;b&gt;Abstract&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Migrating marine taxa encounter diverse habitats that differ environmentally and in foraging conditions over a range of spatial scales. We examined body (RNA/DNA, length-weight residuals) and nutritional (fatty acid composition) condition of juvenile sockeye salmon (&lt;em&gt;Oncorhynchus&lt;/em&gt; nerka) in British Columbia while migrating through oceanographically variable waters. Fish were sampled in the stratified northern Strait of Georgia (NSoG); the highly mixed Johnstone Strait (JS); and the transitional zone of Queen Charlotte Strait (QCS). In 2015, body and nutritional condition were high in the NSoG but rapidly declined to reach the lowest levels in JS where prey availability was low, before showing signs of compensatory growth in QCS. In 2016, juvenile salmon had a significantly lower condition in the NSoG than in 2015, although zooplankton biomass was similar, condition remained low in JS, and no compensatory growth was observed in QCS. We provide evidence that differences in juvenile salmon condition between the two years were due to changes in the food quality available to juvenile fish. We propose that existing hypotheses about fish survival need to be extended to incorporate food quality in addition to quantity to understand changes in fish condition and survival between years.&lt;/p&gt;

title: The phoenix hypothesis of speciation

description: &lt;b&gt;Abstract&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Genetic divergence among allopatric populations builds reproductive isolation over time. This process is accelerated when populations face a changing environment, but abrupt change also places populations at risk of extinction. Here we use simulations of Fisher’s geometric model with explicit population dynamics to explore the genetic changes that occur in the face of environmental changes. We show that evolutionary rescue leads to the fixation of mutations whose effects are larger on average and that these mutations are more likely to lead to reproductive isolation, compared with populations not at risk of extinction. We refer to the formation of new species from the ashes of populations in decline as the phoenix hypothesis of speciation. The phoenix hypothesis predicts more substantial hybrid fitness breakdown among populations surviving a higher extinction risk. The hypothesis was supported when many loci underlie adaptation. When, however, there was only a small number of potential rescue mutations, we found that mutations fixed in different populations were more likely to be identical, with parallel changes reducing isolation. With a limited genomic potential for adaptation, we find support for a modified version of the phoenix hypothesis where reproductive isolation builds fastest in populations subject to an intermediate extinction risk.&lt;/p&gt;

title: Data for: Occupancy–detection models with museum specimen data: Promise and pitfalls

description: &lt;b&gt;Abstract&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Historical museum records provide potentially useful data for identifying drivers of change in species occupancy. However, because museum records are typically obtained via many collection methods, methodological developments are needed in order to enable robust inferences. Occupancy-detection models, a relatively new and powerful suite of statistical methods, are a potentially promising avenue because they can account for changes in collection effort through space and time.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;We use simulated datasets to identify how and when patterns in data and/or modelling decisions can bias inference. We focus primarily on the consequences of contrasting methodological approaches for dealing with species' ranges and inferring species' non-detections in both space and time. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;We find that not all datasets are suitable for occupancy-detection analysis but, under the right conditions (namely, datasets that are broken into more time periods for occupancy inference and that contain a high fraction of community-wide collections, or collection events that focus on communities of organisms), models can accurately estimate trends. Finally, we present a case-study on eastern North American odonates where we calculate long-term trends of occupancy by using our most robust workflow. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;These results indicate that occupancy-detection models are a suitable framework for some research cases and expand the suite of available tools for macroecological analysis available to researchers, especially where structured datasets are unavailable.&lt;/p&gt;

title: Data and codes from: Species divergence under competition and shared predation

description: &lt;b&gt;Abstract&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;Species competing for resources also commonly share predators. While competition often drives divergence between species, effects of shared predation are less understood. Theoretically, competing prey species could either diverge or evolve in the same direction under shared predation depending on the strength and symmetry of their interactions. We took an empirical approach to this question, comparing antipredator and trophic phenotypes between sympatric and allopatric populations of threespine stickleback and prickly sculpin fish that all live in the presence of a trout predator. We found divergence in antipredator traits between the species: in sympatry, antipredator adaptations were relatively increased in stickleback but decreased in sculpin. Shifts in feeding morphology, diet and habitat use were also divergent but driven primarily by stickleback evolution. Our results suggest that asymmetric ecological character displacement indirectly made stickleback more and sculpin less vulnerable to shared predation, driving divergence of antipredator traits between sympatric species.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

title: Geographic variability of hybridization between red-breasted and red-naped sapsuckers

description: &lt;b&gt;Abstract&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hybrid zones reveal the strength of reproductive isolation between populations undergoing speciation and are a key tool in evolutionary biology research. Multiple replicate transects across the same hybrid zone offer insight into the dynamics of hybridization in different environments, clarifying the role of extrinsic forces on the speciation process. Red-breasted and red-naped sapsuckers (&lt;em&gt;Sphyrapicus&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;ruber&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;S&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;em&gt;nuchalis&lt;/em&gt;) have a long zone of contact over approximately 1,600 km from central British Columbia, Canada to central California, USA. We used Genotyping-by-Sequencing data from three independent sapsucker hybrid zone transects to compare hybridization dynamics between these species under variable geoclimatic conditions. We generated geographic clines of the genomic data to compare hybrid zone widths and used Random Forest models and linear regression to assess the relationship between climate and sapsucker ancestry along each transect. Our results show variation in the directionality of backcrossing, often indicative of moving hybrid zones. We note variable cline widths among transects, indicating differences in selection maintaining hybrid zone dynamics. Furthermore, Random Forest models identified different variables in close association with sapsucker ancestry across each transect. These results indicate a lack of repeatability across replicate transects and a strong influence of local environment on hybrid zone dynamics.&lt;/p&gt;

title: A comparison of minimally-invasive sampling techniques for ZooMS analysis of bone artifacts: MALDI-TOF mass spectra

description: &lt;b&gt;Abstract&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span id="docs-internal-guid-c8b812e2-7fff-e249-815f-e446255b215c"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p dir="ltr"&gt;Bone and antler are important raw materials for tool manufacture in many cultures, past and present. The modification of osseous features which take place during artifact manufacture frequently makes it difficult to identify either the bone element or the host animal, which can limit our understanding of the cultural, economic, and/or symbolic factors which influence raw material acquisition and use. While biomolecular approaches can provide taxonomic identifications of bone or antler artifacts, these methods are frequently destructive, raising concerns about invasive sampling of culturally-important artifacts or belongings. Collagen peptide mass fingerprinting (Zooarchaeology by Mass Spectrometry or ZooMS) can provide robust taxonomic identifications of bone and antler artifacts. While the ZooMS method commonly involves destructive subsampling, minimally-invasive sampling techniques based on the triboelectric effect have also been proposed. In this paper, we compare three previously proposed minimally-invasive sampling methods (forced bag, eraser, and polishing film) on an assemblage of 15 bone artifacts from the pre-contact site EjTa-4, a large midden complex located on Calvert Island, British Columbia, Canada. We compare the results of the minimally-invasive methods to 10 fragmentary remains sampled using the conventional destructive ZooMS method. We assess the reliability and effectiveness of these methods by comparing MALDI-TOF spectral quality, the number of diagnostic and high molecular weight peaks as well as the taxonomic resolution reached after identification. We find that coarse fiber-optic polishing films are the most effective of the minimally-invasive techniques compared in this study, and that the spectral quality produced by this minimally-invasive method was not significantly different from the conventional destructive method. Our results suggest that this minimally-invasive sampling technique for ZooMS can be successfully applied to culturally significant artifacts, providing comparable taxonomic identifications to the conventional, destructive ZooMS method.&lt;/p&gt;

title: Data for: Plant and herbivorous insect communities respond in complex ways to rainfall manipulation in an oak savanna grassland

description: &lt;b&gt;Abstract&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Changes in precipitation due to climate change will have consequences for plant and herbivorous insect communities alike. Multiple hypotheses explain how changes in plant diversity and productivity can lead to changes in herbivore community composition. Yet as rainfall patterns change, the bottom-up effects on the relationships between plant and herbivore communities are less well understood. Using a long-term rainfall manipulation experiment in a remnant patch of Garry oak (&lt;em&gt;Quercus garryana&lt;/em&gt;) savanna, we examined how plant diversity and productivity have responded to variation in soil moisture over six years. This highly endangered ecosystem is predicted to experience significantly wetter springs and drier summers by 2080. We also investigated plant-mediated, indirect effects of manipulated rainfall on herbivore diversity and abundance, drawing on multiple hypotheses describing the relationships between plant and herbivore communities. For example, the more individuals hypothesis predicts that increased plant productivity results in increased herbivore abundance which in turn results in increased herbivore diversity. We found that plant productivity was influenced by soil moisture, but the direction and magnitude of the response varied across years, and no support for plant diversity influencing productivity. We also found that the cover and productivity of grasses increased significantly with increasing precipitation. In addition to a significant direct effect on herbivore diversity, soil moisture had a significant indirect negative effect on herbivore abundance, via the negative effect of plant productivity on abundance, contradicting the more individuals hypothesis.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Synthesis: Our results highlight that not only can drought result in significant reductions in plant productivity in this threatened ecosystem, but that these changes will also result in increases in herbivore abundance. In contrast, where soil moisture is higher, grasses will become more dominant resulting in decreased abundance. Ultimately, predicting how this system responds to changes in precipitation will depend on the ability to predict whether growing season soil moisture will be consistently drier or wetter in the future, a significant challenge. Going forward, investigating how variation in precipitation due to climate change affects the links between trophic levels, including how herbivores affect plant communities, remains critical for understanding ecosystem processes and stability.&lt;/p&gt;

description: This data is a subset of the Smart Discharges Uganda Under 5 years parent study and is specific to the Phase I observational cohort of children aged 0-6 months containing &lt;strong&gt;pulse oximetry&lt;/strong&gt; data. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Background:&lt;/strong&gt; Substantial mortality occurs after hospital discharge in children under 5 years old with suspected sepsis. This study aimed to refine and externally validate a previously developed post-discharge mortality prediction model.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; In this prospective observational cohort study, we recruited 0-6-month-old children admitted with suspected sepsis from the community to the paediatric wards of six Ugandan hospitals. The primary outcome was six-month post-discharge mortality among those discharged alive. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Data Collection Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; All data were collected at the point of care using encrypted study tablets and these data were then uploaded to a Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap) database hosted at the BC Children’s Hospital Research Institute (Vancouver, Canada). At admission, trained study nurses systematically collected data on clinical, social and demographic variables. Following discharge, field officers contacted caregivers at 2 and 4 months by phone, and in-person at 6 months, to determine vital status, post-discharge health-seeking, and readmission details. Verbal autopsies were conducted for children who had died following discharge.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ethics Declaration:&lt;/strong&gt; This study was approved by the Mbarara University of Science and Technology Research Ethics Committee (No. 15/10-16), the Uganda National Institute of Science and Technology (HS 2207), and the University of British Columbia / Children & Women’s Health Centre of British Columbia Research Ethics Board (H16-02679). This manuscript adheres to the guidelines for STrengthening the Reporting of OBservational studies in Epidemiology (STROBE).
