title: Data from: The competitive influences of perceptual load and working memory guidance on selective attention

description: The perceptual load theory in selective attention literature proposes that
 the interference from task-irrelevant distractor is eliminated when
 perceptual capacity is fully consumed by task-relevant information.
 However, the biased competition model suggests that the contents of
 working memory (WM) can guide attentional selection automatically, even
 when this guidance is detrimental to visual search. An intriguing but
 unsolved question is what will happen when selective attention is
 influenced by both perceptual load and WM guidance. To study this issue,
 behavioral performances and event-related potentials (ERPs) were recorded
 when participants were presented with a cue to either identify or hold in
 memory and had to perform a visual search task subsequently, under
 conditions of low or high perceptual load. Behavioural data showed that
 high perceptual load eliminated the attentional capture by WM. The ERP
 results revealed an obvious WM guidance effect in P1 component with
 invalid trials eliciting larger P1 than neutral trials, regardless of the
 level of perceptual load. The interaction between perceptual load and WM
 guidance was significant for the posterior N1 component. The memory
 guidance effect on N1 was eliminated by high perceptual load. Standardized
 Low Resolution Electrical Tomography Analysis (sLORETA) showed that the WM
 guidance effect and the perceptual load effect on attention can be
 localized into the occipital area and parietal lobe, respectively. Merely
 identifying the cue produced no effect on the P1 or N1 component. These
 results suggest that in selective attention, the information held in WM
 could capture attention at the early stage of visual processing in the
 occipital cortex. Interestingly, this initial capture of attention by WM
 could be modulated by the level of perceptual load and the parietal lobe
 mediates target selection at the discrimination stage.

title: Data from: Genome-wide patterns of transposon proliferation in an evolutionary young hybrid fish

description: Hybridization can induce transposons to jump into new genomic positions,
 which may result in their accumulation across the genome. Alternatively,
 transposon copy numbers may increase through non-allelic (ectopic)
 homologous recombination in highly repetitive regions of the genome. The
 relative contribution of transposition bursts versus recombination-based
 mechanisms to evolutionary processes remains unclear because studies on
 transposon dynamics in natural systems are rare. We assessed the
 genome-wide distribution of transposon insertions in a young hybrid
 lineage (“invasive Cottus”, n=11) and its parental species Cottus rhenanus
 (n=17) and Cottus perifretum (n=9) using a reference genome assembled from
 long single molecule PacBio reads. An inventory of transposable elements
 was reconstructed from the same data and annotated. Transposon copy
 numbers in the hybrid lineage increased in 120 (15.9%) out of 757
 transposons studied here. The copy number increased on average by 69%
 (range: 10 – 197 %). Given the age of the hybrid lineage, this suggests
 that they have proliferated within a few hundred generations since
 admixture began. However, frequency spectra of transposon insertions
 revealed no increase of novel and rare insertions across assembled parts
 of the genome. This implies that transposons were added to repetitive
 regions of the genome that remain difficult to assemble. Future studies
 will need to evaluate whether recombination-based mechanisms rather than
 genome-wide transposition may explain the majority of the recent
 transposon proliferation in the hybrid lineage. Irrespectively of the
 underlying mechanism, the observed over-abundance in repetitive parts of
 the genome suggests that gene-rich regions are unlikely to be directly
 affected.

title: Data from: Metabolomic and transcriptomic data on major metabolic/biosynthetic pathways in workers and soldiers of the termite Prorhinotermes simplex (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) and chemical synthesis of intermediates of defensive (E)-nitropentadec-1-ene biosynthesis

description: Production of nitro compounds has only seldom been recorded in arthropods.
 The aliphatic nitroalkene (E)-nitropentadec-1-ene (NPD), identified in
 soldiers of the termite genus Prorhinotermes, was the first case
 documented in insects in early seventies. Yet, the biosynthetic origin of
 NPD has long remained unknown. We previously proposed that NPD arises
 through the condensation of amino acids glycine and/or l-serine with
 tetradecanoic acid along a biosynthetic pathway analogous to the formation
 of sphingolipids. Here, we provide a metabolomics and transcriptomic data
 of the Prorhinotermes simplex termite workers and soldiers. Data are
 related to NPD biosynthesis in P. simplex soldiers. Original metabolomics
 data were deposited in MetaboLights metabolomics database and are become
 publicly available after publishing the original article. Additionally,
 chemical synthesis of biosynthetic intermediates of NPD in nonlabeled and
 stable labeled forms are reported. Data extend our poor knowledge of
 arthropod metabolome and transcriptome and would be useful for comparative
 study in termites or other arthropods. The data were used for
 de-replication of NPD biosynthesis and published separately (Jirošová et
 al., 2017).

title: Data from: A remote-controlled observatory for behavioural and ecological research: a case study on emperor penguins

description: 1. Long-term photographic recordings of animal populations provide unique
 insights in ecological and evolutionary processes. However, image
 acquisition at remote locations under harsh climatic conditions is highly
 challenging. 2. We present a robust, energetically self-sufficient and
 remote-controlled observatory designed to operate year-round in the
 Antarctic at temperatures below -50 °C and wind speeds above 150 km/h. The
 observatory is equipped with multiple overview cameras and a high
 resolution steerable camera with a telephoto lens for capturing images
 with high spatial and temporal resolution. 3. Our observatory has been in
 operation since 2013 to investigate an emperor penguin (Aptenodytes
 forsteri) colony at Atka Bay near the German Neumayer III research
 station. Data recorded by this observatory give novel biological insights
 in animal life cycle and demographic trends, but also in collective and
 individual behaviour. As an example, we present data showing how wind
 speed and direction influence movements of the entire colony and of
 individual penguins. We also estimate daily fluctuations in the total
 number of individuals present at the breeding site. 4. Our results
 demonstrate that remote-controlled observation systems can bridge the gap
 between remote sensing, simple time-lapse recording setups, and on-site
 observations by human investigators to collect unique biological datasets
 of undisturbed animal populations.

title: Data from: Algal toxin impairs sea lion memory and hippocampal connectivity, with implications for strandings

description: Domoic acid (DA) is a naturally occurring neurotoxin known to harm marine
 animals. DA-producing algal blooms are increasing in size and frequency.
 Although chronic exposure is known to produce brain lesions, the influence
 of DA toxicosis on behavior in wild animals is unknown. We showed, in a
 large sample of wild sea lions, that spatial memory deficits are predicted
 by the extent of right dorsal hippocampal lesions related to natural
 exposure to DA and that exposure also disrupts hippocampal-thalamic brain
 networks. Because sea lions are dynamic foragers that rely on flexible
 navigation, impaired spatial memory may affect survival in the wild.

title: Data from: The contribution of dominance to phenotype prediction in a pine breeding and simulated population

description: Pedigrees and dense marker panels have been used to predict the genetic
 merit of individuals in plant and animal breeding, accounting primarily
 for the contribution of additive effects. However, nonadditive effects may
 also affect trait variation in many breeding systems, particularly when
 specific combining ability is explored. Here we used models with different
 priors, and including additive-only and additive plus dominance effects,
 to predict polygenic (height) and oligogenic (fusiform rust resistance)
 traits in a structured breeding population of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda
 L.). Models were largely similar in predictive ability, and the inclusion
 of dominance only improved modestly the predictions for tree height. Next,
 we simulated a genetically similar population to assess the ability of
 predicting polygenic and oligogenic traits controlled by different levels
 of dominance. The simulation showed an overall decrease in the accuracy of
 total genomic predictions as dominance increases, regardless of the method
 used for prediction. Thus, dominance effects may not be accounted for as
 effectively in prediction models compared with traits controlled by
 additive alleles only. When the ratio of dominance to total phenotypic
 variance reached 0.2, the additive-dominance prediction models were
 significantly better than the additive-only models. However, in the
 prediction of the subsequent progeny population, this accuracy increase
 was only observed for the oligogenic trait.

title: Data from: Air pollution and visitation at national parks

description: Hundreds of millions of visitors travel to U.S. national parks every year
 to visit America’s iconic landscapes. Concerns about air quality in these
 areas have led to strict, yet controversial pollution control policies. We
 document pollution trends in U.S. national parks and estimate the
 relationship between pollution and park visitation. From 1990-2014,
 average ozone concentrations in national parks were statistically
 indistinguishable from the 20 largest U.S. metropolitan areas. Further,
 relative to U.S. cities, national parks have seen only modest reductions
 in days with ozone concentrations exceeding levels deemed unhealthy by the
 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. We find a robust, negative
 relationship between in-park ozone concentrations and park visitation.
 Still, 35% of all national park visits occur when ozone levels are
 elevated.

title: Data from: Hybridization promotes speciation in Coenonympha butterflies

description: Hybridization has become a central element in theories of animal evolution
 during the last decade. New methods in population genomics and statistical
 model testing now allow the disentangling of the complexity that
 hybridization brings into key evolutionary processes such as local
 adaptation, colonization of new environments, species diversification and
 extinction. We evaluated the consequences of hybridization in a complex of
 three alpine butterflies in the genus Coenonympha, by combining
 morphological, genetic and ecological analyses. A series of Approximate
 Bayesian Computation procedures based on a large SNP dataset strongly
 suggest that the Darwin’s Heath (C. darwiniana) originated through
 hybridization between the Pearly Heath (C. arcania) and the Alpine Heath
 (C. gardetta) with different parental contributions. As a result of
 hybridization, the Darwin’s Heath presents an intermediate morphology
 between the parental species while its climatic niche seems more similar
 to the Alpine Heath. Our results also reveal a substantial genetic and
 morphologic differentiation between the two geographically disjoint
 Darwin’s Heath lineages leading us to propose the splitting of this taxon
 into two different species.

title: Data from: Discovery of metabolic biomarkers for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy within a natural history study

description: Serum metabolite profiling in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) may enable
 discovery of valuable molecular markers for disease progression and
 treatment response. Serum samples from 51 DMD patients from a natural
 history study and 22 age-matched healthy volunteers were profiled using
 liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS) for discovery
 of novel circulating serum metabolites associated with DMD. Fourteen
 metabolites were found significantly altered (1% false discovery rate) in
 their levels between DMD patients and healthy controls while adjusting for
 age and study site and allowing for an interaction between disease status
 and age. Increased metabolites included arginine, creatine and unknown
 compounds at m/z of 357 and 312 while decreased metabolites included
 creatinine, androgen derivatives and other unknown yet to be identified
 compounds. Furthermore, the creatine to creatinine ratio is significantly
 associated with disease progression in DMD patients. This ratio sharply
 increased with age in DMD patients while it decreased with age in healthy
 controls. Overall, this study yielded promising metabolic signatures that
 could prove useful to monitor DMD disease progression and response to
 therapies in the future.

title: Data from: The functional and palaeoecological implications of tooth morphology and wear for the megaherbivorous dinosaurs from the Dinosaur Park Formation (upper Campanian) of Alberta, Canada

description: Megaherbivorous dinosaurs were exceptionally diverse on the Late
 Cretaceous island continent of Laramidia, and a growing body of evidence
 suggests that this diversity was facilitated by dietary niche
 partitioning. We test this hypothesis using the fossil megaherbivore
 assemblage from the Dinosaur Park Formation (upper Campanian) of Alberta
 as a model. Comparative tooth morphology and wear, including the first use
 of quantitative dental microwear analysis in the context of Cretaceous
 palaeosynecology, are used to infer the mechanical properties of the foods
 these dinosaurs consumed. The phylliform teeth of ankylosaurs were poorly
 adapted for habitually processing high-fibre plant matter. Nevertheless,
 ankylosaur diets were likely more varied than traditionally assumed: the
 relatively large, bladed teeth of nodosaurids would have been better
 adapted to processing a tougher, more fibrous diet than the smaller,
 cusp-like teeth of ankylosaurids. Ankylosaur microwear is characterized by
 a preponderance of pits and scratches, akin to modern mixed feeders, but
 offers no support for interspecific dietary differences. The shearing
 tooth batteries of ceratopsids are much better adapted to high-fibre
 herbivory, attested by their scratch-dominated microwear signature. There
 is tentative microwear evidence to suggest differences in the feeding
 habits of centrosaurines and chasmosaurines, but statistical support is
 not significant. The tooth batteries of hadrosaurids were capable of both
 shearing and crushing functions, suggestive of a broad dietary range.
 Their microwear signal overlaps broadly with that of ankylosaurs, and
 suggests possible dietary differences between hadrosaurines and
 lambeosaurines. Tooth wear evidence further indicates that all forms
 considered here exhibited some degree of masticatory propaliny. Our
 findings reveal that tooth morphology and wear exhibit different, but
 complimentary, dietary signals that combine to support the hypothesis of
 dietary niche partitioning. The inferred mechanical and dietary patterns
 appear constant over the 1.5 Myr timespan of the Dinosaur Park Formation
 megaherbivore chronofauna, despite continual species turnover.

title: Data from: Eversion and withdrawal of an intromittent organ before sexual maturation prepares male beetles for copulation

description: Some species of criocerine beetles have a hyper-elongated part of the
 intromittent organ called a flagellum. In resting position, the flagellum
 is stored in a specialized internal sac in the intromittent organ. This
 specialized state of the flagellum and internal sac is indispensable
 during copulation for flagellar insertion into the female spermathecal
 duct for sperm transfer. However, the morphogenesis of the flagellum does
 not generate the active state of the flagellum; rather, the flagellum is
 generated in an inactive and completely coiled state. After eclosion,
 males of Lema coronata evert and withdraw the internal sac multiple times
 before sexual maturation, without mounting a female. This behaviour serves
 to uncoil the flagellum and guide it into the active state with the aid of
 surface structures on the internal sac. A closely related species, Lema
 dilecta, also has a long flagellum and undergoes the same behaviour to
 place the flagellum in the active position. However, some other species of
 criocerine beetles with much shorter flagella can attain the active state
 without exhibiting this behaviour. Based on a previously proposed
 phylogenetic tree, we discuss the evolutionary history of the
 hyper-elongation of the flagellum and associated behaviour.
