title: Data from: Geographic variation in larval metabolic rate between northern and southern populations of the invasive gypsy moth

description: Thermal regimes can diverge considerably across the geographic range of a
 species, and accordingly, populations can vary in their response to
 changing environmental conditions. Both local adaptation and
 acclimatization are important mechanisms for ectotherms to maintain
 homeostasis as environments become thermally stressful, which organisms
 often experience at their geographic range limits. The spatial spread of
 the gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar L.) after introduction to North America
 provides an exemplary system for studying population variation in
 physiological traits given the gradient of climates encompassed by its
 current invasive range. This study quantifies differences in resting
 metabolic rate (RMR) across temperature for four populations of gypsy
 moth, two from the northern and two from southern regions of their
 introduced range in North America. Gypsy moth larvae were reared at high
 and low thermal regimes, then metabolic activity was monitored at four
 temperatures using stop-flow respirometry to test for an acclimation
 response. For all populations, there was a significant increase in RMR as
 respirometry test temperature increased. Contrary to our expectations, we
 did not find evidence for metabolic adaptation to colder environments
 based on our comparisons between northern and southern populations. We
 also found no evidence for an acclimation response of RMR to rearing
 temperature for three of the four pairwise comparisons examined.
 Understanding the thermal sensitivity of metabolic rate in gypsy moth, and
 understanding the potential for changes in physiology at range extremes,
 is critical for estimating continued spatial spread of this invasive
 species both under current and potential future climatic constraints.

title: Data from: Trade-offs in an ant–plant–fungus mutualism

description: Species engaged in multiple, simultaneous mutualisms are subject to
 trade-offs in their mutualistic investment if the traits involved in each
 interaction are overlapping, which can lead to conflicts and affect the
 longevity of these associations. We investigate this issue via a
 tripartite mutualism involving an ant plant, two competing ant species and
 a fungus the ants cultivate to build galleries under the stems of their
 host plant to capture insect prey. The use of the galleries represents an
 innovative prey capture strategy compared with the more typical strategy
 of foraging on leaves. However, because of a limited worker force in their
 colonies, the prey capture behaviour of the ants results in a trade-off
 between plant protection (i.e. the ants patrol the foliage and attack
 intruders including herbivores) and ambushing prey in the galleries, which
 has a cascading effect on the fitness of all of the partners. The
 quantification of partners' traits and effects showed that the two
 ant species differed in their mutualistic investment. Less investment in
 the galleries (i.e. in fungal cultivation) translated into more benefits
 for the plant in terms of less herbivory and higher growth rates and vice
 versa. However, the greater vegetative growth of the plants did not
 produce a positive fitness effect for the better mutualistic ant species
 in terms of colony size and production of sexuals nor was the mutualist
 compensated by the wider dispersal of its queens. As a consequence,
 although the better ant mutualist is the one that provides more benefits
 to its host plant, its lower host–plant exploitation does not give this
 ant species a competitive advantage. The local coexistence of the ant
 species is thus fleeting and should eventually lead to the exclusion of
 the less competitive species.

title: Data from: Incongruence between morphological and mitochondrial-DNA characters suggests hybrid origins of parthenogenetic weevil lineages (genus Aramigus)

description: An expanded matrix of morphological characters for the genus Aramigus
 (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), which includes numerous polyploid
 parthenogenetic lineages, was compared and combined with a published
 matrix of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) characters. The matrix of
 morphological characters provides little resolution of the A. tessellatus
 and A. uruguayensis species complexes but does resolve previously
 unresolved relationships among other morphologically defined species (A.
 globoculus + A. intermedius, A. curtulus + A. planioculus). The
 morphological and mtDNA characters are significantly incongruent (0.435 ≤
 IM ≤ 0.463; IMF = 0.0735), according to the tests of Farris et al. (P =
 0.010) and Templeton (P &lt; 0.005), probably because of hybrid
 origins of polyploid parthenogenetic lineages. For the few sexual lineages
 included in both matrices, morphology and mtDNA provide congruent
 estimates of phylogeny. In spite of recent injunctions against combining
 data sets that are incongruent because of differing histories, the results
 of the combined analyses were used to select one of the most-parsimonious
 mtDNA trees as the best estimate of maternal-lineage genealogy and to
 reconstruct the evolution of parthenogenesis under the assumption that
 transitions from sexuality to parthenogenesis are irreversible. Where
 cytogenetically justified, as in weevils, the irreversibility assumption
 is useful for producing conservative estimates of the age of
 parthenogenetic lineages in spite of potential sampling bias against
 sexuals.

title: Data from: Resistance in persisting bat populations after white-nose syndrome invasion

description: Increases in anthropogenic movement have led to a rise in pathogen
 introductions and the emergence of infectious diseases in naive host
 communities worldwide. We combined empirical data and mathematical models
 to examine changes in disease dynamics in little brown bat (Myotis
 lucifugus) populations following the introduction of the emerging fungal
 pathogen Pseudogymnoascus destructans, which causes the disease white-nose
 syndrome. We found that infection intensity was much lower in persisting
 populations than in declining populations where the fungus has recently
 invaded. Fitted models indicate that this is most consistent with a
 reduction in the growth rate of the pathogen when fungal loads become
 high. The data are inconsistent with the evolution of tolerance or an
 overall reduced pathogen growth rate that might be caused by environmental
 factors. The existence of resistance in some persisting populations of
 little brown bats offers a glimmer of hope that a precipitously declining
 species will persist in the face of this deadly pathogen. This article is
 part of the themed issue ‘Human influences on evolution, and the
 ecological and societal consequences’.

title: Data from: Selection for associative learning of color stimuli reveals correlated evolution of this learning ability across multiple stimuli and rewards.

description: We are only starting to understand how variation in cognitive ability can
 result from local adaptations to environmental conditions. A major
 question in this regard is to what extent selection on cognitive ability
 in a specific context affects that ability in general through correlated
 evolution. To address this question we performed artificial selection on
 visual associative learning in female Nasonia vitripennis wasps. Using
 appetitive conditioning in which a visual stimulus was offered in
 association with a host reward, the ability to learn visual associations
 was enhanced within 10 generations of selection. To test for correlated
 evolution affecting this form of learning, the ability to readily form
 learned associations in females was also tested using an olfactory instead
 of a visual stimulus in the appetitive conditioning. Additionally, we
 assessed whether the improved associative learning ability was expressed
 across sexes by colour-conditioning males with a mating reward. Both
 females and males from the selected lines consistently demonstrated an
 increased associative learning ability compared to the control lines,
 independent of learning context or conditioned stimulus. No difference in
 relative volume of brain neuropils was detected between the selected and
 control lines.

title: Data from: Advancing risk assessment: mechanistic dose–response modelling of Listeria monocytogenes infection in human populations

description: The utility of characterizing the effects of strain variation and
 individual/subgroup susceptibility on dose-response outcomes has motivated
 the search for new approaches beyond the popular use of the exponential
 dose-response model for listeriosis. While descriptive models can account
 for such variation, they have limited power to extrapolate beyond the
 details of particular outbreaks. In contrast, this study exhibits
 dose-response relationships from a mechanistic basis, quantifying key
 biological factors involved in pathogen-host dynamics. An efficient
 computational algorithm and geometric interpretation of the infection
 pathway are developed to connect dose-response outcomes with the
 underlying bistable dynamics of the model. Relying on in-vitro experiments
 as well as outbreak data, we estimate plausible parameters for the human
 context. Despite the presence of uncertainty in such parameters,
 sensitivity analysis reveals that the host response is most influenced by
 the pathogen-immune system interaction. In particular, we show how
 variation in this interaction across a subgroup of the population dictates
 the shape of dose-response curves. Finally, in terms of future
 experimentation, our model results provide guidelines and highlight vital
 aspects of the interplay between immune cells and particular strains of L.
 monocytogenes that should be examined.

title: Data from: Reproductive costs for hybridizing female Anasa tristis (Hemiptera: Coreidae), but no evidence of selection against interspecific mating

description: Individuals of different species sometimes mate in nature, and such
 behavior often carries costs, such as wasted gametes and inviable
 offspring. One context in which interspecific mating commonly occurs is
 when closely related species come into secondary contact. Here, we tested
 whether reproductive isolation is greater in an area of recent secondary
 contact than in allopatry for two closely related insect species, and we
 examined whether mating between individuals of these two species
 constitutes reproductive interference. In Florida, two species of squash
 bugs (Anasa tristis and A. andresii) have been secondarily sympatric for ≥
 80 generations, and male A. andresii copulate with female A. tristis.
 Because hybridization is often costly for females, we predicted that
 secondarily sympatric females would be less likely to mate with
 heterospecifics than would allopatric females. We found no evidence of
 recent selection on reproductive isolation: females from both populations
 were equally likely to mate with heterospecifics, and heterospecific males
 did not make more mating attempts than conspecifics to achieve
 copulations. However, female A. tristis paired with heterospecifics
 produced many fewer eggs and offspring than females paired with
 conspecifics, and this did not differ according to whether females were
 from allopatric or sympatric populations. Our findings show that
 reproductive barriers between these species existed before secondary
 contact. We suggest that habitat use may limit encounter frequency, and
 that female choice, multiple mating, and postcopulatory processes may
 reduce costs for females. Consequently, we suggest that mating systems and
 ecological factors mediate the effects of reproductive interference.

title: Data from: On the measurement of occupancy in ecology and paleontology

description: Occupancy statistics in ecology and paleontology are biased upward by the
 fact that we generally do not have solid data on species that exist but
 are not found. The magnitude of this bias increases as the average
 occupancy probability decreases and as the number of sites sampled
 decreases. A maximum-likelihood method is developed to estimate the
 underlying distribution of occupancy probabilities of all species based
 only on the sample of observed species with nonzero occupancy. The method
 is based on determining the probability that the number of occupied sites
 will take on any specific value for a given occupancy probability,
 integrated over the entire distribution of occupancy probabilities. If the
 shape of the underlying distribution is well modeled, the resulting
 occupancy estimates circumvent the bias inherent in failing to observe
 some species and the fact that this bias depends on the number of sites.
 For occupancy data on marine animal genera drawn from the Paleobiology
 Database, the underlying distribution is reasonably approximated as a
 right-truncated log-normal, but the methods developed can be extended to
 any distribution. Examples are presented to illustrate some observations
 that are robust and others that need to be revised in light of this bias
 correction. The method is compared to a recently developed,
 distribution-free approach to the same problem.

title: Data from: Characterization of 42 polymorphic microsatellite loci in Mimulus ringens (Phrymaceae) using Illumina sequencing

description: Premise of the study: Microsatellite markers were isolated and
 characterized in Mimulus ringens (Phrymaceae), a herbaceous wetland
 perennial, to facilitate studies of mating patterns and population genetic
 structure. Methods and Results: A total of 42 polymorphic loci were
 identified from a sample of 24 individuals from a single popula- tion in
 Ohio, USA. The number of alleles per locus ranged from two to nine, and
 median observed heterozygosity was 0.435. Conclusions: This large number
 of polymorphic loci will enable researchers to quantify male fitness,
 patterns of multiple pa- ternity, selfing, and biparental inbreeding in
 large natural populations of this species. These markers will also permit
 detailed study of fine-scale patterns of genetic structure.

title: Data from: Ant-plant mutualism: a dietary by-product of a tropical ant's macronutrient requirements

description: Many arboreal ants depend on myrmecophytic plants for both food and
 shelter; in return, these ants defend their host plants against
 herbivores, which are often insects. Ant-plant and other mutualisms do not
 necessarily involve the exchange of costly rewards or services; they may
 instead result from by-product benefits, or positive outcomes that do not
 entail a cost for one or both partners. Here, we examined whether the
 plant-ant Allomerus octoarticulatus pays a short-term cost to defend their
 host plants against herbivores, or whether plant defense is a by-product
 benefit of ant foraging for insect prey. Because the food offered by
 ant-plants is usually nitrogen-poor, arboreal ants may balance their diets
 by consuming insect prey or associating with microbial symbionts to
 acquire nitrogen, potentially shifting the costs and benefits of plant
 defense for the ant partner. To determine the effect of ant diet on an
 ant-plant mutualism, we compared the behavior, morphology, fitness, stable
 isotope signatures, and gaster microbiomes of A. octoarticulatus ants
 nesting in Cordia nodosa trees maintained for nearly a year with or
 without insect herbivores. At the end of the experiment, ants from
 herbivore exclosures preferred protein-rich baits more than ants in the
 control (i.e., herbivores-present) treatment. Furthermore, workers in the
 control treatment were heavier than in the herbivore-exclusion treatment,
 and worker mass predicted reproductive output, suggesting that foraging
 for insect prey directly increased ant colony fitness. The gaster
 microbiome of ants was not significantly affected by the herbivore
 exclusion treatment. We conclude that the defensive behavior of some
 phytoecious ants is a by-product of their need for external protein
 sources; thus, the consumption of insect herbivores by ants benefits both
 the ant colony and the host plant.

title: Data from: Can MHC-assortative partner choice promote offspring diversity? A new combination of MHC-dependent behaviors among sexes in a highly successful invasive mammal

description: Sexual selection involving genetically disassortative mate choice is one
 of several evolutionary processes that can maintain or enhance population
 genetic variability. Examples of reproductive systems in which choosers
 (generally females) select mates depending on their major
 histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes have been reported for several
 vertebrate species. Notably, the role of MHC-dependent choice in
 non-mating contexts, but in other kinds of social interactions such as in
 the establishment of complex social systems, has not yet drawn significant
 scientific interest and is virtually absent from the literature. We have
 investigated male and female MHC-dependent choice in an invasive
 population of North American raccoons (Procyon lotor) in Germany. Both
 male and female raccoons rely on olfaction for individual recognition.
 Males have an unusually complex social system in which older individuals
 choose unrelated younger ones to form stable male coalitions that defend
 territories and a monopoly over females. We have confirmed that females
 perform MHC-disassortative mate choice, and that this behavior fosters
 genetic diversity of offspring. We have also observed that males build
 coalitions by choosing male partners depending on their MHC, but in an
 assortative manner. This is the first observation of antagonistic
 MHC-dependent behaviors among sexes. We show that this is the only
 combination of MHC-dependent partner choice that leads to outbreeding. In
 the case of introduced raccoons, such behaviors can act together to
 promote the invasive potential of the species by increasing its adaptive
 genetic divergence.
